Carina Works creates beautiful environments with wall tile, metal floor tile, and metal flooring. Most notably, they use these materials as an accent with any granite, stone, marble, or ceramic tile field; however, some of Carina Works clients have opted to use their work as an impact site for home or commercial presentation. Carina Works talented artists can customize the colors in their existing designs, or they can use your ideas, color palette, and/or artwork to create something that is uniquely yours. Custom color or design can range anywhere from $50 to $150.

It’s even possible to request special samples from Carina Works, by working with Catalfamo Gallery. You’ll need to know the number of tiles you’ll need, and then request your sample. When you receive your total order, your sample will be part of the count.

CR Studio 4, a family owned and operated business from Southern California, is a place where integrity and dedication to craftsmanship prevail. In this day and age, machine-made products and assembly-line mentality have become commonplace, but with this shift, the spiritual and truly individual beauty of the products for our homes and offices is often lost. But not with CR Studio 4. If you want a touch of artistry for your new project, then look no further.

The company offers basically two different styles of tile: stone and metal. Within those categories lie ceramics, granite, marble, bronze, and pewter. All of CR Studio 4’s tiles are handmade and crafted. And they do all of their own designing, mold-making, casting, bench and foundry work. When you have a CR Studio 4 product, you know you have something unique. The different styles and materials can be used in pretty much any combination, depending on your vision.

Studio 4’s various products can bring a unique flare to your wall or accent your floor. Their products are used as kitchen countertops, backsplashes, showers, or even office walls. The only place Studio 4’s products are limited are in your imagination. They not only have the basic tile pieces, but they also provide stunning trim, moldings, rail caps, and deco accent tiles and murals that add that finishing touch of class. They even have an amazing decorative threshold piece in pewter that stylishly connects one type of flooring to another.

Color selection at Studio 4 is just as varied and eclectic as its styles. From their metal line, Pewter is a gorgeous metal that has depth of color with varying shades of gray and black, adding texture and old-world charm. Though color varies in the metal, the Bronze line has a copper-type look, and depending on wear and exposure can darken over time. If you like that look, great, but you can also restore the brighter color and shine by buffing with some soap and water and a ScotchBrite pad.

You can also choose stone tiles in colors like Lemon Pesto or Rusty Matte or Silver Snow, just to name a few. Basically take the rainbow, soften the colors, and you have the palette that Studio 4 provides.

So to make your everyday living spaces glow by installing the luxury and artistry of CR Studio 4’s amazing products.

Dynamic. That’s the word for Solistone’s amazing lines of stone, glass, and metal wall and floor coverings. This Los Angeles-based company is one of the largest importers/distributors of fine decorative stone that can be used as wall covering and flooring, indoors and out. Their mission, “to provide the highest quality and most exquisite materials the trade has to offer,” is fully realized in their galleries, and you can bring that same quality your home or office.

Solistone’s products are organized into three main categories: Pebbles, Natural Stone, and Distinctive Tiles, and within each of these categories are three to seven collections, each with a unique style.

Within the Distinctive Tile category, you’ll find products such as Glass, Metal, and Mission tiles, to name a few. Also you’ll find the Seychelles collection, which is mosaic made from natural shell material, a product that would look stunning on a bathroom floor, walls, and showers.

In the Natural Stone collection no two products are exactly alike. The splendor of earthiness of the Haisa marble and sandstone will add a unique, rustic feel to any location…from the stacked look of the Portico collection to the nonlinear Versailles Slate collection, there’s certainly a style that would add just the right touch to the space you’re designing. You can use most of these products as mosaic or tile flooring or wall covering for any room, and most can be used for interior or exteriors.

The most distinctive collection, Pebbles, is truly an inspiration. Solistone uses real stones and pebbles and mounts them onto mesh backing for ease of installation. There are natural creek rock colors, blacks, grays, whites, and earth tones. But they also take this Pebble idea and apply it to their glass and metal collections as well. So basically you can have the look of pebble rocks of varying sizes and shapes but in metal, and even colored metal. It’s a truly unique look that will have people amazed as they view your home or office.

So if distinguished, unique, and dazzling are the words you want others to use when describing your new space, then Solistone is your destination. They provide detailed installation suggestions and instructions as well as specific care and maintenance guidelines for their superior and distinctive products. Your look is at your fingertips with Solistone.

Pacilantic 

Installation can be done by a do-it-yourselfer, but you should definitely at least consult a professional for tips and warnings about installing these types of products. Also be sure and read the installation documentation thoroughly for your product before jumping in. The tiles should be installed with regular white thinset mortar, applied with a notched trowel. The tile sheets or tiles themselves should then be placed according to the design pattern and after a curing period can be grouted. Glass tiles can also be installed outdoors because they are non-porous and handle expansion and contracting that occurs when temperatures rise and fall.

We cannot stress enough how unique and beautiful these Pacilantic products are. Their ceramic tiles are hand painted and then layered with a unique glaze that gives the ceramic a glass-like appearance. The painted tiles can either be individual, or some are actually part of a mural that can be installed in coordination with other tiles to give you a unique look and feel.

Pacilantic glass tile products are also a vision. Their stunning pebble glass series has an almost otherworldly feel. The mosaics they offer come in a wide range of themes including the tropics, fruits and vegetables, and flowers and animals. Because the work is hand-produced, some variations of color and tone can occur. So if it’s not exactly as you see on the website, it’s ok, it’s actually more than ok — you’ll know you have a look that no one else will have. You can also find beautiful metal tiles in black, copper, or silver tones that can add splashes of light and a clean feel. Pacilantic also provides your “normal” slate and stone tiles as well as a combination of glass and stone that bring the rugged, sturdy look that is so popular today.
