Funky French Flooring: Retro Patterns On Vinyl Floor Tiles

Oct. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Zazous are proud announce that they are the UK distributors for a brand new range of vinyl floor tiles from France. Kate Austin, owner of online webstore zazous, came across the product while sourcing cutlery for her current online homewares business. She liked them so much that this has led to a new direction for her. She plans to roll out the product by selling the tiles into flooring shops and DIY centres across the UK.

"We have only been selling them for a couple of weeks on our website and we have already seen a huge interest in the tiles but we need to get them to flooring suppliers. At present most of our customers are stumbling on them while shopping for wall stickers or home accessories. Once they are more widely available we think they will be in huge demand."

So far the most popular designs have been The Red Stars, which is redolent of 1950s American diners, and Rose Des Vents which is more French in style and is similar to antique ceramic tiles. Rosemary is a striking larger scale pattern for the more daring home stylist. Finally are the Blue Rose and Capucine designs that can be used together to create a mix-and-match pattern. All the designs share a retro, mid century feel with a modern twist.

"I am so tired of all the pseudo-wood finishes and fake stone that I was genuinely excited to find these creative designs from France. I simply haven't seen anything like them before. " said Kate.

They are made from self-adhesive vinyl and are therefore very practical, easy-to-lay, durable and inexpensive at around £30.00 per square metre. They would be very functional and attractive in a kitchen or bathroom and would also work well in a conservatory or a hallway. Each tile is 30.5cm x 30.5cm and there are 11 tiles per pack.

You can currently only purchase them online from http://www.zazous.co.uk/PBSCCatalog.asp?CatID=1338666 but if Kate has her way they will soon be in a store near you.
