New Venetian Gold Multi-Charged Vitrified Tiles by Artica™


I am going to start our new design series on multi-charged vitrified tiles for this year by giving you suggestions on how to freshen up the major heart of the home:  the living room.  For those of you who have worked with me in the past, you know that I try to make the design process an pleasurable one, by keeping it as simple and unsophisticated as possible. I am going to start each series with a granite base selection and build upon that with flooring selections and paint colors to coordinate. There will be some sample pictures to direct you to view the products and as normal; I am always available to assist you with any designs questions.

One of the most popular and most versatile multi-charged vitrified tiles to work with is New Venetian Gold, or some may simply call it Venetian Gold.  It has a very neutral pallet.  It has the warmer, more golden, neutral tones, with black/grey veining, and random garnet flecks. It is often the choice of home builders or those who plan on selling their homes. Whether you wish to do a total look, or prefer to accent with bolder colors, New Venetian Gold will work well for anyone who likes a warm, impartial base colour. It is expected that the New Venetian Gold series for Multi-Charged vitrified tiles would be available in late 2011.

Ceramic tiles for your Home and Office


Ceramic have been used from centuries by people of different culture and region to embellish in it beautiful works of art. Depending upon the texture, color, design, and pattern, different types.

Ceramic may be either glazed or unglazed, or spongy or waterproof. Glazed types are mostly machine made, and are pressed in a die as well as fired in a kiln, which in twirl provides hard surface and color to the product. Based on the specific purposes, ceramic tiles are further classified into floor products and wall products. As the name indicates, the floor type is a great option to surface floors. Floor tiles are mostly porcelain, and are more durable.

In advance, we have categorized all tiles into some grades. For instance, Grade 1 tiles are best for high traffic areas such as kitchens and laundry rooms. Grade 2 can be used for any home installation. Likewise, Grade 3 is recommended for small as well as medium commercial applications, whereas Grade 4 is usually recommended for such areas as shopping malls and restaurants. Also we have products in order to apply exclusively in areas like gardens and swimming pools.

Size is another thing to be considered. If your room or office is small, it would be better to apply small tiles. Also, while selecting our tile, check whether its texture goes with your room theme. Likewise, during installation process, use such a grout that complements your selected tile.
