Innovative tiles for modern and traditional interiors

Tiles have been around for centuries, but the most remarkable innovations are only now being seen, thanks to new digital technology manufacturing processes.

Tile Trends brings the best of old and new to its showrooms throughout the country. But it is the collections of one-of-a-kind tiles that are especially exciting, says director Graeme Clearwater.

"Many of our clients are looking for something that will create a real point of difference in their home," he says. "They love the idea of discovering something new or exotic that they can work into their interior design. We can supply everything from traditional Victorian tessellated tiles to ultra-modern minimalist looks."

Examples of the special collections include Turkish-inspired Alhambra tiles, and tiles featuring images created with digital processing. These include decorative designs for accent walls and timber-look tile planks for floors.

"We have samples of all these tiles in our showrooms, and will import these to order," says Clearwater. "But we also keep huge stocks on hand of the more conventional lines that make up 90% of sales."

Tile Trends designers can help you with your choice, bringing samples to your home to match other furnishings.

The company has tile showrooms in Auckland, Tauranga, Palmerston North, Paraparaumu, Petone and Wellington. For details, visit www.tiletrends.co.nz
