Residential Edition: Pathways & Verandahs
Your home’s pathway, verandah and stairs are the first point of entry that leads you into your home. These areas set the tone and announce your arrival, so how they are presented is very important.
For Federation or Victorian period homes, these spaces are usually dressed and finished in tessellated tiles. Whether you’re replacing existing tessellated tiles or looking to incorporate them into your home, the transformation that occurs is beautiful, valuable and permanent.
Every project is unique. The pattern, the border, the shapes and the colours. The combinations and results are endless. TTF has selected a few standout transformations that left us inspired – we know it will leave the same impression on you.
Transformation of Verandah in Stanmore
- Glasgow Tessellated Design
- Decorative Norwood Border
Tessellated tile designs are available in a wide range of patterns. Knowing which pattern is the right one for your home is where our expertise comes into play. A gorgeous entrance will make an unforgettable first impression, so it’s important that the finishes you select complement your personal style as well as the period of your home.
Located in Stanmore, in the heart of the inner west, TTF was engaged to adorn the verandah of this terrace house with a tessellated design that would leave that lasting impression. The pattern selected is the stunning “Glasgow” in a colour palette of white, grey and black. The incorporation of decorative encaustic feature tiles adds a level of intricacy, completing the look and style of this home. Building details such as the black lacework balustrade and black step treads connects perfectly with the Glasgow tessellated floor.
Transformation of Pathway in Haberfield
- Ashfield Tessellated Design
- Balmain Border
This project in Haberfield required tessellated tiling installed on an S-bend pathway leading up to the entrance of the home. Selecting the appropriate pattern for an S-bend pathway is critical to ensure the geometry of the pattern isn’t compromised.
Laying tessellated tiles requires craftsmanship and a deep understanding of geometric floor designs. TTF leads the industry in the installation of these tiles, and projects like this one are a testament to our craftsmanship and artisan skill.
Transformation of Pathway, Verandah, Stairs in Croydon
- Liverpool Tessellated Design
- Decorative Norwood Border
Our clients are constantly amazed at the transformation of their space once their tessellated tiling has been completed.
The design and colour palette selected for this project aligns perfectly with this home’s exterior. The deep, dark face brickwork is complemented with an equally bold geometric floor. A grand statement for the entry of this home.
Transformation of Verandah in Richmond
- Glasgow Tessellated Design
- Standard Norwood Border
This estate in Richmond is a Federation style home set on a spectacular acreage of land. The tessellated tile pattern installed on the verandah of this home is our most requested ‘Glasgow’. The tessellated border is the standard Norwood design, framing the body of the tessellated pattern perfectly.
The colour palette chosen sits harmoniously with the external colours of this home. A truly beautiful transformation.
Transformation of Pathway, Verandah in Dulwich Hill
- Custom Tessellated Design
- Custom Border
A large portion of work that is undertaken by TTF involves recreating the original tessellated designs that have existed for decades in client’s homes. Our ability to recreate these designs ensures the home’s authenticity isn’t lost, but simply restored to its former glory.
Any restoration or recreation process requires skill and knowledge. TTF have led the industry in this work, securing contracts with Taylor Constructions and others for Heritage Restoration projects.
Transformation of Verandah in Brisbane
- Windsor Tessellated Design
- Windsor Border
This home located in Brisbane, incorporated a tessellated design colour scheme perfectly suited to its external colour palette. The use of yellow within the tessellated floor responds to the colour of the external walls, whilst also picking up on the tones of the existing sandstone steps. A truly harmonious result.
