| These are the hand painted pasta tiles used throughout the house. They are concrete and appear to be about an inch thick. Once in place they are polished to a high gloss and are really beautiful. |
 |
| Laying the tiles one-by-one and in perfect alignment! |
 |
| Because the tiles do not line up from room to room, this interesting transition works very well and looks great once the grouting is finished. |

| Pattern in the two front salas. The architect's renderings show terra cotta tiles throughout, but in the end the pasta tiles were thankfully used. |
 |
| Clay tiles don't work well with all the moisture that comes up from the ground, so these are actually cement slabs that have been expertly formed and finished with a terra cotta color. Small white stones have been placed between the pavers for a really nice effect. |
 |
| Built-in shelves for computer, printer, etc. with wires and cables recessed into the wall. The holes were later be filled in, smoothed over and painted. |
You're right! Those pasta tiles were the way to go! The pattern gives the sala a fun, updated spin on the standard pasta tile look...I like it a lot!
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan. We really do love the floors.
ReplyDeleteI like the transition tiles you placed in between the two rooms. It creates a beautiful division, and I’m pretty sure it will look even lovelier once grouted. Also, the tile pattern in the front salas looks very Mexican, which I think is a perfect fit with the overall design of your home. I like how you used earthy colors because they lend a warm yet rich aura to the room.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the comment. We are extremely happy with our home.
