Resumen:
The present research presents a visual analysis of the hydraulic tile of Campina Grande, covering the examples of the Metro Materiais Factory, the former "Fábrica de Mosaicos Resistência", inaugurated in 1947. Popularly known as mosaics, this type of tile coating was an important constructive element in the historical constitution of the Campina architecture. The city was a stage of great development in several industrial sectors and, therefore, it becomes important to investigate the trajectory of the hydraulic tile factories that worked in the municipality. The research investigates the patterns and other iconographic aspects of the tiles produced by Metro Materiais, with the purpose of analyzing, registering and understanding the drawings in a technical-constructive manner. The research, according to its scientific and academic value, is justified due to the scarcity of literature on the subject of visual analysis regarding these artrfacts, resulting in the preservation of the models, through the record of the Campina Grande's industrial patrimony studied in the research. Thus, the contribution of the results, as well as the concepts presented on the techniques of composition of the hydraulic tiles, opens paths for knowledge that can be applied in other projects in the area of surface design
