TILES WITH STYLE FROM SOLUS CERAMICS


When an old 1980s office block was transformed into luxury apartments, Solus Ceramics were called upon to provide a sophisticated tiling solution for the new residences.


Tile supplier Solus Ceramics has been involved in the transformation of a 1980s office block in London into stylish luxury residences, with the installation of specially selected and sourced marble and limestone tiling.


The redevelopment of the Tower View property, on the river Thames, comprises of five luxury apartments and one duplex penthouse, featuring a roof terrace with stunning views over Butlers Wharf and the Shard. Originally a 1980s office block, the building was remodeled and designed with the expertise of interior architecture and design consultancy, Interior Architecture UK, to create luxury contemporary residences with wonderful views of the London skyline.


Each apartment and penthouse within Tower View was designed individually and includes six unique kitchens, a choice of character timber floors and 13 different bathrooms and ensuites, offering Solus Ceramics an opportunity to showcase a wide range of products.


Specially-selected tiles were sourced from a selection of natural materials, purposely chosen for the sophisticated scheme of every bathroom and ensuite.


Ann Loxley, Director at Interior Architecture UK, said: “Tower View was a very prestigious project to work on,

seeing the transformation of a traditional office block into exquisite residences.


“Interior Architecture UK were the soul designers on the Tower View apartments and worked closely with the developer to ensure their vision was met. With such a prestigious location, it was vital that all the materials used echoed the elegance of the wonderful views over the River Thames, with this being one of the reasons we specified Solus Ceramics.”


The individual bathroom concepts featured tiles from Solus Ceramics’ wealth of ranges and were enhanced with decorative mosaic designs to create eye-catching features. Products included the unique Dior chocolate marble, subtle grey moonstone limestone and mosaics in bronze/black Testi De Moro and Mother of Pearl.


Bespoke designed ensuite bathrooms with a curved shower wall were enhanced with Solus Ceramics mosaic tiles with multi-tonal iridescence, adding texture and a play of light. In contrast to the intricate detailing, the marble and limestone were laid in a larger format, providing a contemporary base.


Ann said: “The main criteria, set out by the developer, was to ensure each apartment had its own unique styling, setting out a


precedence of different finishes in every aspect of the design. To ensure each bathroom had its own identity, we needed to make sure we had a wide range of materials to choose from, ensuring each property had its own individual style.


“Solus Ceramics were fantastic at quickly sourcing impeccable ranges that radiated sophistication and luxury. A strong theme throughout the bathrooms and ensuites was the use of natural stone and feature walls in mosaics.


“Having worked with Solus Ceramics on many previous projects, we specified them knowing the guaranteed level of quality and reliability. The ranges selected encapsulated the developer’s vision, once again echoing the breathtaking surroundings.”


Stephen Baker, Sales Director at Solus Ceramics, said: “Tower View was a fantastic project to work on, collaborating with a team that really pushes the boundaries and excels in exquisite design detailing.


“We worked closely with Interior Architecture UK to provide beautiful, yet striking tiles to complement the surroundings and make the bathrooms in each of the apartments come alive with their own unique style and personality.”
