Bits Quad-Facet Decorative Tiles by Ceramiche Piemme

The art of decoration of ancient Rome, of the opus incertum and lapis porphyrites, are reinterpreted according to contemporary technologies, maintaining intact the charm of reuse exalted in industrial mass production. Besides this, however, Gordon Guillaumier shifts attention from really fake to fake reality: in a declaration of intents that authenticates the entire intellectual journey of the project. 

Replacing a marble tozzetto tile with a slit of wood is a clever graphic operation: besides going against the grain, with respect to the norm, it is also a successful attempt to reproduce the wood effect with ceramics. In this case, wood becomes texture, which by assonance, replaces the marble of a terrazzo flooring, becoming an intrusive pattern on a base of concrete, grit and stone: and it is precisely this intrusion which reveals the richness of the Bits project, which in the Quad and Facet versions, presents different but historically impossible graphic theories. Until today at least.

Brymac Tiles is a family-owned business established in Christchurch in 1976, yes that’s right, Brymac have been operating in the Christchurch tile market for 40 years! 

Brymac was primarily a tile installation service; many people will remember them in their store behind Briscoes in Salisbury Street. In the 1990s the Brymac team began sourcing and importing their own tiles.  The emphasis back then and today is specializing in high-quality European tiles at the cutting edge of fashion and trend but with a difference; price!

By 2010 Brymac tiles had outgrown their little shop behind Briscoes and moved to 42 Durham Street.  In 2015 this distinctive black building was refurbished and now boasts a massive downstairs showroom, an intimate architectural studio and a dedicated trade counter for tradesmen and DIYers alike.  Not only that; the Brymac installation team are also on-site to offer an installation service second to none.

Over the years the business has diversified and grown while still maintaining the family values, old fashioned service and advice.  Years (decades even) of experience have allowed the team to find tiling systems and accessories that Brymac could 100% put their name behind.  We now offer, with confidence to tradespeople and DIYers a range of tried and true products and ranges; Ardex, Mapei, Tilers mate, DTA, Kemgrout just to name a few.

Brymac knows tiles and tiling; we believe we offer the best quality European tiles at the best price; materials that you can count on to get any tiling job done and an installation team with a 40-year reputation for quality.  Who else can say that?
