Hi Naomi,

You look to be doing quite an extensive renovation on your house! I had recommend the Barrimah stone cladding for your facade in another post. You could also look at using a natural stone around your pool. A cost effective and readily available product that would like great with your design is our Bluestone. Here's a link to see some projects. We'd be more than happy to look after you in one of our showrooms and discuss your project further. Eco Outdoor Bluestone. Best of luck!

Many Tile ranges now come with special step edge pieces. A lot of times these are not advertised by the retailers but they are available. Many of our ranges have this option available. If you can email us (info@design-di-lusso.com) an idea of the kind of tile you're after we can have a look for a suitable tile with a step edge available from our ranges.

One of the main advantages of a laminate wooden floor is that advancements in design allow for wooden floors to cleverly replicate other popular flooring options, like tile or stone effect floors. As the range of tile-effect wooden floors has increased, so too have the opportunities to incorporate them into your home interior. Many design-conscious homeowners are embracing tile in rooms all over the house, not just the bathroom where these would be a traditional choice. One of our most popular tile-effect flooring choices is our Elite Stone Concrete which our customers love, so here are 4 ways to use it in your own home to create a stunning end result. Hallway Create a contemporary entrance to your home using the Elite Stone Concrete Floor and set the tone for guests on what to expect from the rest of your stylish interior. Not only does this floor look great in a hall, it’s also a very practical addition as it’s durable and easy to clean thanks to the square edge finish, so no dirt or dust can gather in the joints. Style the rest of your hallway with modern accessories to really show the floor off to its full potential – like a large plant in a simple white pot, and a statement mirror above a slimline console table. Kitchen The light and dark grey tones in this Elite Stone Concrete floor work wonderfully well with a bright and modern white kitchen, and especially when paired with modern chrome or silver taps, light fittings and cupboard handles. You can appreciate the beauty and quality of this floor for years as it’s an extremely hard-wearing design – it’s even ideal for commercial settings, so you’ll get a floor you can enjoy for years. Fitting a tile effect wooden floor is also typically much quicker, and with this floor it’s just a simple click installation system, so you could also save on fitting costs. Living room A living room might be an odd choice for adding a tile effect floor as many people incorrectly assume it will look and feel cold. This is most definitely not the case with the Elite Stone Concrete floor – especially as it’s suitable for underfloor heating – what a great way to add extra cosiness to your living space. This flooring choice is perfect for complementing a living room which features a wood burning stove or other modern fireplace and large windows letting in lots of light. Interested in finding out more about our tile and stone effect flooring? Browse the full collection online, and don’t forget you can also order up to three free samples to help you decide on your perfect floor. Conservatory A conservatory or sunroom is a great addition to your home, and they typically feature tile or stone flooring which makes them easy to maintain and very hard wearing. Adding the Elite Stone Concrete floor to your conservatory would be a very wise design choice indeed – this classic colour matches well with most shades so you can pair your sofa or armchairs with it effortlessly, and with so much light in a conservatory this dark grey floor makes a nice contrast.

Porcelanosa do a range called Dover Topo. They have a surface which has a slightly rasped texture (like concrete) and best of all they have really authentic surface variation in the tones. I have them in my bathroom. I would have had them in my kitchen diner, but they are very expensive. Porcelanosa do a sale about twice a year. Bottom picture is my bathroom floor.

Hi Naomi

We have a really unique wood look product which is non porous and has the highest anti-slip rating of any decking on the market (that includes hardwoods and WPC), so it's ideal for wet areas, such as swimming pools; https://www.forteflooring.co.nz/product/catalogue/millboard-decking

https://www.millboard.co.uk/

It's more stable than plastic composites, doesn't fade as much as them, is more realistic, last longer, more stable against the UV, the lighter colours don't heat up as hot as WPC decking.

Send email if you would like some samples, and to discuss further: carlo@forteflooring.co.nz
