Cement Tile Shop is so excited to announce that we will be opening our flagship retail design showroom…and what better place to do that than in our own backyard?

The showroom will be a great place to check out many of our patterns and will be a great resource for architects, designers and retail clients. It will also provide a hands-on, interactive environment to experiment with colors and custom patterns.

Although we hope to have our design center open in June, the building will also house our new offices, with a completion date in the next few weeks. Construction is well underway, so stay tuned for more info and pics. We hope you are as excited as we are!

J. Crew – London

Posted on by

Cement Tile Shop was thrilled to recently provide our handmade cement tile for the new J.Crew location in East London. J.Crew Redchurch is a men’s only location and the seventh J.Crew store in the UK. Installation was completed by Bridgford Interiors Limited.

The project, using our solid black and solid white cement tiles, involved laying the tiles in various patterns throughout the store. Using solid tiles allowed for flexible pattern layouts to distinguish and separate different areas within the store. The black and white floor gives the store a classic, masculine feel.

These tiles plus many of our popular cement tile patterns are in stock in Europe, at our UK warehouse. Cement Tile Shop’s European office can be reached at +44 (0) 1527 892885 or email europeservice@cementtileshop.com to assist you with any European tile needs.

Patchwork Random – Fairfax, VA

Posted on by

Jordan Design-Build Group is a full-service residential design-build firm serving the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area. For a recent remodel project a client wanted to go big and bold in the kitchen whilst maintaining an eclectic style. Using our Patchwork Random selection of colorful cement tiles, they created a ceiling-high backsplash that acts as the focal point of the room.

A custom banquette filled with colorful pillows coordinates with the backsplash and anchors the light-filled corner of the kitchen, creating a cozy breakfast nook. They also installed a richly patterned pressed tin ceiling to add vintage flair to an often overlooked part of a room. Eye-catching black trim makes the windows pop and completes this bold kitchen makeover.

Our patchwork patterns are a random selection of handmade cement tiles that are shuffled at the factory. Patchwork Random is a stock item and ships out immediately. Patchwork is also available in several color dominant blends – red, blue, green and yellow. 4″ x 4″ and rectangular options are also available.

Bordeaux – St. Louis Park, MN

Posted on by

Post World War II homes are not necessarily known for their open layouts. Crush Collective, designers based in Minneapolis, MN, took on this 1950’s-era kitchen design challenge. The goal was to accommodate a family four, while incorporating a chef’s kitchen and creating a clean, simple room filled with style.

Working closely with the clients, the designers came up with thoughtful and creative design solutions. Everything in the kitchen needed to have a purpose and place, and at the same time had to reflect the artful nature of the client.

Our Bordeaux pattern was chosen to create visual interest as a backsplash over the stove and behind the hood. The handmade cement tile is a showstopper and gives the space instant personality. After looking at these pictures, we think you’ll agree!

The chalkboard for family notes and inspirations, bold light fixtures and quartzite counters all add to the overall beauty of the space and help to make the cement tile pop.

If you are in Minnesota reach out to Crush Collective for an amazing space of your own.

House Crashers – DIY Network

Posted on by

Who doesn’t love a good episode of House Crashers!

I know we do.

The hugely popular series, on the DIY Network, follows host Josh Temple as he tries to find a random customer at a home improvement store that will agree to take him to his/her house to help with a home project. After finding a “troubled” area of the home, Josh surprises the individual by agreeing to do a full remodel of the space. The project is then completed in a few short days with the help of the homeowner and friends.

We are thrilled that the show used our Bouquet II pattern in an episode of this season’s show. The episode is titled “Arched Mediterranean Kitchen” (Season 11, Episode 2) and follows a couple as they get a complete kitchen renovation. Our handmade cement tile is used on the kitchen backsplash to create a unique centerpiece for the space. The Bouquet cement tile pattern blends in perfectly with the new kitchen’s Mediterranean theme.

Check out the clip below or tune in to DIY for the whole episode.

Patchwork Cement Tile Options

Posted on by

We have a new addition to our popular handmade cement tile patchwork collection!

For the first time, we now offer our random patchwork in 4″ x 4″ cement tiles. These tiles are offered in a thinner thickness than our standard tiles. They are only 15/32″ thick (1.2cm). This size and thickness of cement tile is a perfect option for kitchen backsplash and decorative wall applications. Perfect for residential or commercial applications. Better yet, this option is in stock and ready to ship!

Random – 4″ x 4″:Cement Tile Shop - 4" Patchwork

As with all of our Patchwork cement tile offerings, each option is a random selection of handmade cement tiles shuffled at the factory. We have no control over the patterns included. For more direct control of the patchwork consider adding additional boxes of tile patterns from our Pacific Collection.

Traditional 8″ x 8″ cement tiles in a standard thickness (5/8″) from our Pacific Collection are also offered in several color options as well as random.
