Description
Solus worked with the team at Hale Brown Architects to supply a variety of bespoke, water jet cut tiles to an office refurbishment project in London. The geometric theme flows throughout the space and is reflected in the floor tiles featured in the reception, bathrooms and shower areas.
Tiles Used
Tiles from the Halogen range were water jet cut into precise triangle shapes.
Outcome
Drury House, a large, prominent office building set in the Covent Garden area, recently received a fresh transformation by the team at Hale Brown Architects.
A main theme running throughout the new areas, a triangle motif, was inspired by the unusual geometry of the building and can be seen in graphic designs on the walls, in the shape lighting fixtures and with the large format triangular tiles that provide the subtle pattern on the floors.
Solus worked with the architects to supply bespoke cut triangle tiles from the Halogen range, which is a full bodied porcelain collection, characterised by strong, solid, uniform colours.
To create the interesting, geometric floor pattern, standard 600x600mm tiles were transformed using an advanced process called water jet cutting, which is a tried and tested method of cutting tiles into precise and complex shapes.
A cost effective and environmentally conscious solution that minimises tile wastage and provides clean, crisp and smooth edges; water jet cutting can be applied to any of Solus’ vast portfolio of ranges to create similar geometric tiles.
