A Whole Home Project
We begin with the heart of the home, the kitchen. The owners of The Willows, were looking for a contemporary tile collection that featured both an internal tile and an external co-ordinating tile so they could run the same flooring across both indoor and outdoor spaces. As the chosen kitchen units were in white, and worksurface in a beautiful white-grey the couple wanted a slightly darker tile but one that wasn’t too dark.Â
The Heart of the Home
Our Alpine Scorch was chosen. A beautiful quartz effect tile in charcoal, greys, silvers and whites. The tiles work beautifully in the space. With a 9mm thick tile for the internal kitchen in a lovely Matt finish, the same tile was chosen for the outside space in 2cm thickness with a grip finish.Â
Â
Alpine Scorch tiles continue into the lounge allowing the internal space to flow freely from kitchen to open plan living area. In addition, with the view from inside to outside we can see how the Alpine Scorch tiles flow from lounge to lawn with ease. In this case tiles are a 600 x 600mm format and are the prefect canvas for across the home linking and seamlessly connecting these beautiful spaces.Â
Lounge to lawn
Our Alpine Scorch tiles in 2cm thickness continue the flow from lounge to lawn providing the perfect platform for this stunning outdoor area including hot tub and relaxation space. With inside outside living on the rise running the same tile from in to out opens up space like never before. With advances in sliding door technology, thresholds are at a minimum and that means it is possible to achieve a beautifully flush run from indoor to outdoor allowing you to bring the outside in and take the inside out.Â
We're all snug
For the snug, a very different feel was required and our Serenity Sienna wood effect plank tiles were chosen. In a lovely large format, these tiles are 1.2m x 19.5cm wide and with 39 different patterns mimic wood with incredible realism. Sienna is a lovely warm toned tile in a rich red/brown and as a colour works beautifully with the beams in this wonderful home.Â
Dining in Style
Â
Serenity Sienna wood effect plank tiles continue into the dining area and this colour was chosen to also work with this beautiful furniture. Tiles are laid with a third overlap to ensure there is no lippage with the tiles and deliver a wonderful flush finish to the floor. Easy to clean, wood effect porcelain tiles are ideal for dining areas – scratch and stain resistant, they are easy to maintain and work brilliantly with underfloor heating too.
That Master Bathroom
And finally upstairs to this stunning master en-suite featuring our beautiful Carerra Argent marble effect tiles in 1200 x 600mm format. We paired this wonderfully fresh large format marble effect tile with our Beat Grey porcelain tiles for the floor creating a stunning canvas that works to perfection with the white sanitaryware and chosen brassware. The design feels so fresh! We love it!
The Gym
There’s one last addition! The gym! In this case our client bagged a bargain in our clearance section and opted for our Swoop Grey 600 x 600mm tiles – a gorgeous blue-grey stone effect tile with a little extra grip to the surface but still easy clean. Our Antislip Soft tiles were just the ticket. The R11 A+B+C finish is ideal for delivering a non-slip surface without being too textured and that also means it is easy clean. Sadly, whilst Swoop Grey is no longer available still have some stock left in Swoop Beige!
