Here's Sophie's finished medallion. It's a strange design until you realize that it's two hearts embracing each other - easier to see in a reduced photo than a full-sized one. The design is Leonard Cohen's "Unified Heart". The owner of the house (or "castle" as Sophie calls it) is a big Cohen fan and got permission from him to use the design.
Along the edge of the medallion Sophie added a double vermiculum row and larger outside row to make a smooth transition to the prefabricated rest of the floor, made from similar-sized tesserae.
Installation starts today!
