'The Seattle Times (photo credit above) ran a feature on the new Gates Foundation headquarters. My favorite element is the use of Jura limestone on the exterior. It’s a substantial stone that gives the building a real sense of permanence.

'Buying flooring for a room can be a costly endeavor no matter what the material. Not only do you have to buy the floor covering, but then comes the cost of labor, installation materials, and the more difficult the installation, the more you may end up paying. There are many surfaces to choose from for your specific room or project: wall to wall carpet, carpet tile, tile (hard surface), linoleum, the list goes on.

'We love when our customers share pictures of their tile installations! The Donaldsons, who emailed us pictures of their new kitchen backsplash today, chose 4x4 indian autumn slate and sealed it with TEC Ensealant Stone Enhancer. The sealant brought out the rich hues and shaded tones of the slate that a natural sealer would have otherwise subdued. Check out the heritage metal chair rail and the 4x4 heritage metal sagebrush accents that they scattered throughout the backsplash.

'Our tile was just featured in the last episode of Sweat Equity on the DIY Network. Looks like they made a basement into a workout room. Our tile was used on the fireplace- the Biltmore 3" x 6" with Aloe Glass 3" x 6". Not sure why there''s a fireplace in the workout room?? Maybe to sweat more??

'The Medici Genoa collection features a large 4”x12” and a sleek 2”x8” rectangle that fits todays contemporary styles. Named after the “Capital of Culture,” the Genoa collection contains rich hues that will suit many designer color pallets. Clear and glossy, you can see the depth of the tile capturing the surrounding light. The painted back ensures that you will not see the thinset behind the tile, nor the mesh that holds the coordinating mosaics.

Your kitchen is the heart of your home, the place where your family spends the most time, whether it’s cooking, eating, entertaining or just hanging out and helping your kids with homework.

'You know you want it. Large tile mixed with small tile in, what appears to be, a random pattern. This customer wanted every aspect of his newly finished basement bar to be fun and fabulous. Attention to detail included the floor behind the bar, and he wanted a pattern with random sizes. Due to messy cocktails that somehow end up on the floor, he also required that it look like a natural slate, except in a no-maintenance porcelain tile.

'Just got back from the Vegas KBIS show.sad to report it was quite a dissappoinment!! I first started going to the show about 8 years ago, and it was fabulous. Over the past 3 or 4 years, however, it has gotten progressively smaller and the displays are definately not what they used to be. The Tile Shop got out of these trade shows a few years ago.seems like many other companies have done the same thing.

A Guilloche is a pattern of interwoven strands, resembling rope, often used as a border in Roman mosaics. Typically two, three or five strands would be use in the Guilloche.
