The cut tiles are shared out around the perimeter, the joints fall on the centre line of the openings.

Fine materials &finishes

Stone, marble, solid parquet, architectural metalwork. The right materials, laid with the precision of the workshop.

Our approach

The material,

A fine material badly laid is still a material badly laid. Chevron parquet turns on the starting line, large formats on the flatness of the substrate, stone on the direction and gauge of the blocks, marble on matching the veining between two neighbouring slabs.

We choose the materials with you, then prepare the substrates properly — levelling compound, primer, drying time — before laying anything at all. It is the invisible part that decides how it looks.

The materials we work in

  • Natural stone and dressed stone
  • Marble, travertine and marble-grade stone
  • Solid parquet: chevron, herringbone, parquet blocks
  • Large-format porcelain stoneware and material effects
  • Terracotta, encaustic cement tiles and zellige
  • Architectural metalwork: glazed screens, balustrades, handrails
  • Decorative paint, plaster finishes and limewash
  • Plasterwork, mouldings and cornices

How we work

The detail

01

The setting out

We draw the layout before we lay it: starting line, how the cuts are shared out, direction of the light. A sliver of a cut in a visible corner spoils a whole floor.

02

The substrates

Levelling compound, bonding primer, drying times respected. Large formats and solid parquet forgive nothing on flatness.

03

How it ages

We favour materials that improve with age — stone, solid oak, brass — and details that can be put right rather than replaced.
