The Silk Road Collection from New Ravenna Mosaics of stunning mosaic tiles combines styles of east and west – Central Asian Ikat textiles, silk ribbons, ancient Greek nudes, and florals inspired by designer Sarah Baldwin’s travels along the Silk Road and her personal collection of Ikat textiles.
Color palettes for the collection range from blends of soft pearl whites to sparkly silver mirror with accents of gray and black.
If you like the warmth of wood flooring but find that planks are a little plain and parquet is too dated then the Enigma Collection might be the answer you have been looking for.
Jacks
This playful pattern is sure to draw attention to a room with it’s 3 interlocking shapes. Install it in a contrasting finish as shown or a single finish for a more subtle effect.
Jigsaw
Perhaps the most well know pattern of the flooring collection, the Jigsaw pattern is perfect for a child’s room or a modern office. For added interest, consider a pattern with two different wood species.
Lotus
The curvacious shape of this floor was inspired bu the lotus flower. This floor can be installed with the pattern all in one direction or with it alternating. The alternating pattern shown creates a lot of movement in a room.
I’ve been an admirer of Q-BO tile since they came out with the Volute Bianco Collection.
Now, I really like their Moda Series Glitter Fiore tile with floral pattern on round marble mosaics.
These beautiful tiles don’t have to be hidden in the bathroom since focal walls of tile are popular in modern homes. Imagine them in your entry way or sitting room.
The whole surface of MODA modules features a very refined bass-relieved pattern recalling elements of lace and is available in a choice of colors like White Carrara, Crema Moon or the dark tone of Slate Ligure.
The shower is no longer conceived of as a wet cell, but has become an inherent part of a whole room approach to bathroom design – showering is thus defined more and more by curb-less designs that do without shower trays. This style of showers require a new generation of floor drains to help maintain the boundary between wet and dry zones in your bathroom.
There are many advantages to using a linear slot drain in your bathroom shower. The most obvious is the sleek continuous look your shower floor will have. Removing the shower curb and letting your floor tile cover the the whole area will make your bathroom appear larger.
Quick Drain USA’s high-quality, stainless steel linear slot drains come in various sizes from 32″ to 60″ making it an easy choice for your next project. These 1 1/2″ wide drains have the lowest profile in the industry and are available with both side and bottom drain outlets. This linear channel drain is also very easy to clean. Everything is removable (including the shower linear drain cover and strainer).
For curved shower applications ACO Haustechnik has linked up with Glamu to create a free-standing shower enclosure. The shower drain system holds the curved glass element firmly in place with only one side fixed to a wall. ACO offers designer grates for their drains with 5 pattern choices that can optionally be lit with colored LEDs.
The Poresta Slot Floor Drain by Illbruck is well suited for the most minimalist bathrooms. The grateless 7mm drain positioned directly against the wall gives the shower the appearance of having no drain. Water disappears into a barely noticeable shadow gap.
