PrimaPorcelain Projects: Patio Redesign

joel primaporcelain news

It's always great to be sent images and kind words from happy customers who have used our products, which is why we like to share them with you on the PrimaPorcelain blog. Not only does it give you a better idea of how our porcelain tiles and paving work in practice, it also provides you assurance an peace of mind regarding the quality of our products.

These customers recently used our 2cm tiles to transform their garden patio, following the installation of a brand new kitchen extension. Naturally, they wanted to create an attractive space to look out onto from their new patio doors, which would also compliment the rest of the new structure.

Prima Project 1

As you can see from these renovation images, our customers have been able to create a sleek, fresh-looking patio and step design, which blends in beautifully with the rest of the property.

Here's what the customers had to say:

"We visited the showroom to see the products and get more details. The 2cm porcelain tiles we looked at were excellent and we were spoilt for choice. [...]The tiles are every bit as we expected, very strong, even our builder was impressed. [....] We would definitely recommend the product and company"

If you would like to create your own outdoor flooring design, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Our friendly team will be able to help you every step of the way, either by phone, or in person at one of our showrooms.

If you would like to experience the quality of our tiles for yourself, you can order a free sample today!

2016 Home Design Forecast

joel primaporcelain news

2015 will soon be over, and so it's time to look forward to the coming year and make some predictions for the trends that will be dominating the world of home design in 2016. Whether you're looking to revamp your home in the new year, or incorporate some subtle changes to give tired decoration a shake up, this list should give you some ideas for adding some on-trend additions to your home.

Natural Materials

Whether it's marble, wood, stone or minerals, these Pinterest-friendly materials are sure to gain even more popularity in 2016.

This minimal clock from MADE is a subtle and chic way to invest in the marble trend, while these stunning Agate coasters from West Elm offer a luxurious yet practical home solution.

Mixed Metals

While our passion for copper and brass accessories is set to continue in 2016, we should also see a rise in the use of mix metals. This could work by displaying a selection of metal items in a mix-and-match fashion, or by selecting pieces which combine metal touches in their pattern and design.

These copper edge mirrors from Cox & Cox add subtle dimension to a standard mirror, by adding a hint of colour and rounded edges. These metallic vases by Coral and Bone blend a variety of metallic tones to produce a lovely marbled finish.

Brining Nature Indoors

Plants not only work well with the natural material trend, but also add a touch of colour and homeliness to your space. The best part is that they are also good for your health, as they help to improve the quality of the air in your home.

These planters from Rose and Grey are a great way to display vines, ferns and other plants, while also adding elements of the metallic trend to the design. To display plants on tables, shelves and other units, these geometric planters from Hope and Willow provide a bright, fresh addition to any surface.

Try Out Our Product Selector Tool!

joel primaporcelain news

As you may have noticed, we've made a few changes to the PrimaPorcelain website of late. We now have a stylish new design and a huge range of new products, but perhaps the biggest change of all is the addition of the PrimaPorcelain Product Selector.

The Product Selector is a handy little tool that makes it easier than ever to find the perfect porcelain for your project. The filters allow you to specify...

...where you are installing your tiles (indoors, outdoors, or both)
...which colour you would like (choose from cream, beige, grey, brown and black)
...the texture you are looking for (we offer polished, smooth, fine textured, or textured/grip)

Once you have ticked the boxes that apply to your project, our Product Selector will narrow our range right down, only showing you the products that fit your requirements. For example, you can ask to see polished beige tiles for an indoor space, or black paving slabs with a textured finish that's suitable for outdoor use. No matter what you need, our Product Selector will find it for you!

Of course, if you prefer, you can simply ignore the Product Selector tool and browse through our entire range. It all looks rather splendid, and we're certain that at least one of our designs will catch your eye!

Some of Our Latest Projects

joel primaporcelain news

Hello! We've been extremely busy of late, which is why we haven't updated the blog for a while, but rest assured that we're still transforming gardens up and down the country! Here are some pictures of our latest work:

Cowbridge School

This is an outdoor seating area at Cowbridge Comprehensive, a secondary school in the Vale of Glamorgan. We provided two different types of porcelain paving for this space - Bluestone Midnight (the darker slabs in the centre) and Quartz (around the edge). We love this use of two contrasting colours, and the students at Cowbridge Comp now have a far more attractive place to eat, study, and meet with their friends!

Porcelain patio

This is a garden in London that we helped to improve with our Limestone Vanilla porcelain paving. As usual, the light and creamy tones look absolutely wonderful in the sunshine - we're particularly fond of the step (also paved with Limestone Vanilla) that joins the patio to the back door. It looks absolutely seamless!

Transition between indoors and outdoors

Speaking of seamless, feast your eyes on this beautiful image! This garden is located in the Worcester Park region of Surrey; the client opted for Dark Grey Granite Paving (one of the most recent additions to our collection), and we love how the new patio segues seamlessly outwards from the interior tiles. Amazing!

Our elegant porcelain paving products are perfect for architectural projects, and if you don't want to take our word for it, perhaps a vote of confidence from one of the UK's leading architecture resources will convince you. For the last twenty years, the Architects Datafile magazine has provided Britain's architects with invaluable information and a variety of thought-provoking articles, and we're pleased to report that our beautiful porcelain tiles were recently featured on their website.
