Often interior design is about finding the balance between classic and contemporary. Whether it’s fitting a much loved piece of furniture into your minimalist space, or trying to modernise an older property, combining the two is a fine art, which is why we are so in love with the Vintage range. As the name says, these tiles have a vintage look but manage to work in almost any setting.

Italy is a treasure rove of mosaics. Although the Greeks were the first in the Mediterranean world to use them, the Romans took them to their heart. The three great eras of this art form were the Classical Roman period, the Byzantine period and the Renaissance. Each era brought something special to mosaics and each era brought that special quality to a world larger that the Italian peninsula and the islands of Sicily and Sardinia.

The passing of time is a reality we cannot escape. It is one that creates two permanent challenges in interior design: durability of materials and longevity of design trends. That’s where ceramic tile comes into the design equation. It is the perfect option to fight the concept of time and withstand these challenges. Its resistance and infinite aesthetic possibilities makes ceramic tile the ultimate design tool.

Traditionally the most popular materials for patios have been natural stone and concrete slabs for many years, but recently porcelain has seen a huge increase. Porcelain paving tiles are slip resistant, extremely strong and resistant to staining as well as moss & mould growth While some retailers may treat these tiles just like the paving they are used to, we are careful to advise and recommend based on the fact that they are porcelain and need to be handled differently.
