Tile has long been the selected material of designers, architects and home owners to provide a rich, luxurious look. How about adding personalized images or photos to create custom tiles?
Imagine adding a family portrait to the tiles located in the foyer. What about adding the beautiful sunset captured on film while on vacation to a tiled bathroom wall?
Coastal Murals, LLC specializes in transforming artwork or photography onto this innovative canvas, creating a one of a kind masterpiece. These murals are able to stand on their own as an architectural feature or can be incorporated into any tiling project.
Tile selections to create this custom work include: tumbled stone, a flat stone finish that presents any art or image in an old-world fashion; glossy finish, which provides a brilliant canvas for best artwork and photo reproduction; glass, which is recommended for floors, walls, and swimming pools; and satin porcelain, an off white tile that generates a more muted or artist color reproduction.
