'Tuesday, August 27, 2013. Enduring Tile of the London Underground. 2013 marks the 150th anniversary of the first train journey on the London underground. Chances are that it was not particularly comfortable, as the engine was a steam locomotive. Anyone who has ridden the modern London underground can attest to how hot it becomes in the carriages during hot summer months and the grime that builds up on your skin over the course of travel.

'To say that August has been a big month for Granada Tile would be an understatement. The September issues of Country Living and Martha Stewart Living hit the newsstands this month and both included projects with our sensational cement tiles.

'skip to main | skip to sidebar. 26 August 2013. Kitchen Uncovered. Sometimes you just get lucky. Called to renovate a modest ground-floor apartment is São Paulo, AR Arquitetos discovered an opportunity to transform the space. Part of the property extended under a central courtyard. By glazing the ceiling of that portion of the home, the heretofore dark interior is given a dazzling new look; the kitchen is the principal beneficiary. ar-arquitetos.com.br.

'Hands down, the best part of making cement tiles has to be seeing Granada Tile ‘s products installed in finished projects. We’re always in awe of the creative, dynamic ways our clients use our concrete tile. You can imagine how excited we were to see Ariel Fox ‘s amazing use of our cement tiles in a new project in Hollywood. For the outdoor spaces around the pool at Rubix , a new luxury apartment building, she turned to our concrete tiles for needs big and small.

'skip to main | skip to sidebar. 30 August 2013. Weekend Furlough. Its a three-day weekend here in the States, as we mark the close of summer with Labor Day. Not to clamber up on a soapbox here, but I cant help reflect on the irony of the holiday, with the job market stagnant while income inequity has soared. In 1946—the date of this beautifully rendered appliance advert—the US unemployment rate was 3.9%; today its about double that figure.

'Do you have wood cabinets? Are you taking proper care of them? With the right maintenance and cleaning, your cabinetry can look great for a long time—and it doesn’t take all that much work! In general, try to visit the cabinet manufacturer’s website for the right care and cleaning for the specific products they make, but in general, there are certain wood cabinet care and maintenance tips to keep in mind: Don’t limit cleaning to every few months or so—a lot of dust and grease can build up.

'skip to main | skip to sidebar. 27 August 2013. In-Between Bath. The sun is out, its 83ºF, and theres even a light breeze coming through—yet a glance at the calendar augurs the unofficial end of summer. Change and I can be uneasy partners, and the shift in seasons is no exception to this. Theres something about the gauzy, blurred view afforded by this bath that puts me in mind of this upcoming transition; whos to say what the future holds?

Two different people asked me if I made mosaic switchplates, during the same week. When I looked at the plate, with it’s holes for the screws and the toggle, I didn’t know how to begin.

'In the smallest room of the house, space must be utilized to its fullest potential. Designer Monica Graffeo kept this precept in mind when creating the Fonte collection of bathroom fixtures; most of the pieces are multi-purpose. I''m partial to the sink, with its integral shelves and a base-basket that can hold laundry, cleaning supplies, or what-have-you.
