The first stage of the Pacific Garden residential housing development in Manukau is almost finished. These are a taste of the colours I used for some of the entrances.
My best advice is take your time, and if it is all too daunting, bring in the experts. We are updated in the latest stock, we have seen a lot of the tiles in situ, and we have some fantastic contacts/suppliers. We also understand the difference between a porcelain tile; a natural stone and a ceramic tile, as well as the variations of grout, and the difference they will make to the overall look and wearability.
The new season’s tiles are looking great, particularly some of the splashback options. Here’s a taste from a couple of my favourite tile suppliers.

I have been meaning to write a blog on the benefits of wool carpet, but houzz has written a brilliant article, which I would like to share.

I love wool carpet – it makes such a difference to the look, the feel, and so much more.
