Custom Tile & Stone Design
Custom designed tiles and carefully selected stone provides a sense of personality and uniqueness to any project design. This MCH&R project entailed the services of an artist who specializes in crafting inlaid ceramic tile.
The fine craftsmanship vendor provides custom tile finishes, ranging from colorfully designed hand glazed tiles to abalone inlaid accents, emulating a wide variety of images.
Our client’s design objective for this project was to emphasize the natural environment. The hall bathroom included sea life abalone inlays of a starfish, dolphin, sunfish, sea horse, and a sea shell.
The master bathroom included a natural pebble stone banding in the shower.
A Jurassic Green Metaconglomerate slab stone was used for the bathroom countertop. These slabs include large pebbles and larger clasts in a matrix of sand, silt, and sometimes clay.
The natural slabs sometimes reveal fossilized prehistoric sea life and/or petrified vertebrates. Design, Build and customize your bathroom to reflect your personal lifestyle.
