Tile medallions and murals for floors, walls and shower backs, laid out with precise cutting, careful centering and borders that frame the artwork.
A medallion or mural is a work of art set into the room. It can be a round design in the center of an entry, a mosaic scene behind a range or an inlaid border around a bath floor. Homeowners in Nashville use them to give a space personality, and they ask us to set them so they look as if they grew out of the floor.
Precision is everything. We measure the space, find the true center and mark the medallion's position before any tile is set. The surrounding tile is cut to meet the medallion's outline so the lines feel natural. We use the right adhesive for the material, whether it is a water jet-cut stone, a ceramic mural or a mosaic, and we protect it during the project. Borders and field tile are chosen to frame the design without competing with it, and we explain how to care for the finished piece. Order the medallion before the field tile, since its size and edge decide the layout. Ask the supplier for a template or a scaled drawing, and lay the template on the floor to judge scale. Keep the packing materials until the piece is checked for chips and color.
