Bathroom Backsplash

Our client had found these ceramic coasters that had been etched by sandblasting. The pieces were further highlighted with discarded firebrick from a brewery that was cut to fit on site. This is an example of an original application of non-traditional objects.

Kitchen Backsplash

The inspiration for this kitchen came from the clients' love of nature and the ocean. During the summer the sun sets directly through the kitchen window.

The clouds are in gentle bas relief. Ungauged silver quartzite was used for the mountains, hand cut and fitted on site. The mountains on the left side of the backsplash are similar to the coastal mountains of Vancouver Island, while those on the right side reflect the mainland topography. The window surround fades into indigo with the first stars of the evening showing. The sunset wraps into the bay window with gently undulating tiles.

Laundry Room Backsplash

Even laundry rooms deserve beauty. Being part of a completed laundry room project, the blacksplash continues the dolphin theme, with springs tying in the bluish- white paint of the walls to the colored grout lines within the piece.

Shell Inserts in Kitchen Backsplash

Our client chose sculpted shell tile inserts reflecting her passion for the blues of the ocean. These were placed randomly throughout the backsplash, cut into the 8 x 12" blue field wall tile.
