Vessels
With the exciting Ethnic collection of animal print vessels from Vitruvit you can choose your favourite pattern from a wide range including snake, leopard, giraffe, and crocodile. Not only that, you can also choose from a range of distinctively shaped sinks. Focusing on the great prints and forms of the sinks, Vitruvit designers Manuela Busetti and Andrea Garuti have chosen the most minimal of slits for the water to escape, keeping your focus firmly on the shape and print of each vessel.

Vanities
Vanities can be used as a showcase for animal prints too… the AdattoCasa Couture vanities show their true stripes in the best possible way! Topped with a modern basin, the body of the vanity is wrapped in a terrific animal print, adding a new dimension of interest to a functional piece. Whether finished with a glossy black snakeskin or an impressive tiled zebra or giraffe print, these simple Couture vanities are totally contemporary.

Animal Tiles

Animal Print on Wall Coverings

Tile

Tiles are a practical and decorative way to add animal prints anywhere. The Animalier tiles from Settecento combine great looks and a fun tactile element. Leo, Zebra and Cobra patterns can be combined or used individually on walls or around key features in the bathroom for emphasis. Wild Thing Daktari also favours a surrealistic twist for high impact. These animal printed tiles are a playful option – the patterns appear abstract – copied from an animated jungle inhabitant rather than a real one! A timeless, sophisticated interpretation of the animal print trend, the Leopardo is from the 2008 Mosaic Tiles collection by Bisazza. Formed by an intricate pattern of tiny mosaic tiles, the Leopardo is truly precious. Mosaic tiles, by nature of their small size, are fantastically versatile too.

Bathtub Tiles

Tile Tales
Bob the Builder I’m not.

I started on a project today that I’ve been meaning to do for the past year – and for good reason.

I needed to fix some of the bathtub tiles that were starting to come loose.

Well…….

It’s a project not only for today, but also for tomorrow and possibly Friday and possibly beyond.

Seems the drywall behind the tiles is finally starting to go kaput after being up for about, oh, fifty years or so. I guess it had to happen sooner or later, but couldn’t it have waited until #1 I croaked or #2 somebody else owned the house?

So now I’ve got a stack of tiles that I can’t do anything with until I go to Home Depot and talk to one of their friendly customer representatives about what I can do to fix my little problem.

I was really hoping it was going to be an open and shut case. Put some heavy duty glue on the back of the tile and stick that puppy back up and we’re good to go.

Now I have to go one step farther and hope that my non-mechanically-inclined brain can handle the extra duty it’s been assigned.

Or I could just call in the real Bob the Builder for some assistance.

Harmony Wood Mosaic Tiles

Sometimes, a modern space could use a dose of warmth and texture. In addition to larger Mesquite Wood Tiles from Ann Sacks, smaller, 3/4" x 3/4" wood mosaic tiles are available for walls and floors where moisture isn't an issue. Because wood will warp and buckle with moisture, these tiles are best when used for design accents. And they come in a wide range of woods with varying colors and textures...
