The Style Issue New releases & a new era

For many of us, the start to 2020 was met with excitement and positive anticipation for a new year and a new decade. But as we release this first edition of Inspired Spaces, we are closely watching the effects of COVID-19. As we learn stories of the global pandemic touching lives and disrupting businesses, we also hear inspiring stories of kindness, community, innovation and resilience. Our priority is the health and well-being of clients and team members, and we are implementing best practice to minimise currents risks.

Whilst we focus on the events surrounding us, we also recognise that it is nice to take a break. We hope this digital magazine offers you a moment of respite and inspires your plans for the near future, because we will all get through this together.

From our family to yours, stay safe, well and positive.

A STORY OF STYLE

with Christie Wood

60 Years of Beaumont Tiles The Beaumont Tiles story is one of passion and determination. In 1960 RJ Beaumont established Beaumont Tiles from his family home. Unable to find great tiles himself, as well as hearing from builders with the same frustrations, he set out sourcing and importing the best tiles for any budget.

Today, Beaumonts has become an iconic national tile company with over 110 outlets and shows no signs of slowing down.

Christie Wood is Beaumont Tiles Design Specialist as well as RJ Beaumont’s granddaughter. She reflects on her family’s journey and the changing trends over the years.

“

60 years is a long time. There is a lot of history in it. My family’s history is in this company, and I love the memories that come through to make this story. I am taking you on a journey. A journey of trends, family and passion for the product and industry.

“

The sixties were a very exciting time; it was a time of new ideas, and pushing the boundaries of society and making change. The 60s were everything from the traditional to the groovy. The paired back Mid Century design movement gave way to the psychedelic later in the decade.

My Poppa, RJ Beaumont loved push boundaries and take calculated risks, but when it came to his own bathroom only the best would do. In the early 60s his tile choices for his own home was both upmarket and innovative for the time. As a whole, Australia’s most popular floors in the 60’s were unglazed mosaic tiles. And for the walls, some of us might remember the ‘Chicken tiles’, in which Lilac vein was by far the most popular.

1970s started with excess and over the top interiors, with pop art and vibrant colours taking advantage of new manufacturing technologies. It then settled into more of a homely return to nature when the recession hit. Australia’s favourite walls were - White, almond and muted yellow colours, often with floral motifs, in gloss 150x150 size. My dad Bob also took the mindset of pushing boundaries and taking risks. We had tiles in the living, kitchen and dining areas... people thought he was mad. The only other people at the time doing the same were immigrants from Italy and Greece where it was normal to them, and dad really embraced this.

The 1980’s was the decade of big hair, big phones, Pac-man, MTV, Personal Computers, shoulder pads and pastel everything. Tile looks were still mostly remaining neutral with browns or variations. 200x200 sizes started; Floral friezes running horizontally around the room and geometric patterns starting making waves.

10

The 1990s is often remembered as a decade of relative peace and prosperity. Decoration was very romantic and feminine. We painted our walls with sponges or stencilling, had canopy beds, curtains that ended in puddles on the floor and country style gingham and ruffles. Tile looks played on nature with stone or marble looks and matching frieze tiles with floral patterns through them. 75x150 square edge tile brick bond lay was the most popular.

To see in the new century, we started with Minimalism and Zen inspired spaces. Finished off with Maximillism choosing heavy damask and chandeliers. This was reflected in tile patterns of minimalistic design and concrete even started to emerge. There was every form of coffee brown colours; espresso, latte, chocolate, and later the damask patterns mimicked the very popular wallpaper featured walls.

The 2010’s had an unconfident start due to the post-recession aftermath.

There were cautious shoppers who only chose beige, grey or maybe blue.

But it was also a time of being crafty and inventive. We saw IKEA hacks, and DIY TV shows to encourage our way. And the Scandi style was extensively documented on Instagram and Pinterest. Ink jet tile technology spread like wildfire globally, because of its ability to replicate the look of natural materials. Each piece has the ability to have high variation between each tile.

Additionally, the sizes of tiles really exploded with advances in technology, and we are seeing 3000x1000 slab tiles thanks to this. As well as innovative slip-resistance technology making one tile capable for both indoor and outdoor use.

White acts as the perfect canvas for layering other colours, encourages restful vibes and promotes a sense of cleanliness. Glossy forms also reflect light and have an illuminating effect.

From pure white to creamy ivory and tone-on-tone marble effects, the restrained palette works well because it gives you decorative freedom to build upon. It is the perfect foundation for all styles from classic traditional, to coastal to modern and everything in between.

Beaumonts have the white tile to suit you and your lifestyle. Choose a smooth finish for minimalistic clean lines or inject personality to the hue with textural patterns.

5 Reasons Why Tiles go the Distance: We might even hear you saying I Chose Beaumonts in another sixty years!

Tiles are high-heel friendly: Love your heels but worried your floor won’t?

You can trample over tiles in your tallest stilettos all day long with no fear. Tiles are the equivalent hardness of Topaz and Quartz on the Hardness Scale. That means tiles are pretty well immune to the harshest of treatment - including high heel pit marks.

They are scratch resistant: Porcelain tiles shine bright like a diamond – and they’re almost as tough! As the highest-rated flooring material for hardness, tiles are remarkably difficult to scratch. Try with all your might, you’re going to struggle to scratch a gorgeous tile floor.

32

They are termite and wood-worm proof: A survey by CSIRO suggests that one in three dwellings have termites within the property boundary and many of those homes are at risk, particularly those with termite food available such as untreated wood and wood products. A benefit of tiles is that they are immune to these highly destructive pests which the Australian Institute of Architects suggests attacked 130,000 Australian homes in a year, with estimates of $1.5 billion in damage.

They don’t absorb or emit odours: Flooring takes the brunt of food and liquid spills, muddy footy boots and animal accidents, resulting in uninvited odours despite the best cleaning efforts. For some flooring choices, such as wood, high humidity and water can produce a musty smell, particularly when the room receives no ventilation or natural sunlight. Carpet, timber and vinyl flooring are all like a big sponge – they absorb odour like a sponge absorbs water, even when sealed. Non-porous or impervious flooring such as glazed porcelain and ceramic tiles do not absorb soils or moisture.

They are water resistant: It is not just the wet areas of the home, such as bathrooms and kitchens that are likely to get liquid on them. Kids, pets and parties are among the spill inducing scenarios that can see the lounge room, dining room and bedroom floors become soaked – potentially having long term effect on the floor. Then there are always wet feet from a swim at the pool or beach, which are unavoidable during the summer months.

Former Block-heads Simon and Shannon Vos, who, when not running their design and construction business, love getting out in the surf year-round. They say that while most flooring will absorb moisture, tiles are the ideal waterproof flooring. “The tile’s durable glaze on top of the surface does not let liquid seep through,” says Simon. “Tiles are virtually impenetrable and will not let liquids soak in, allowing for easy maintenance and worry-free cleaning,” says Shannon.

BEAUMONT TILES presents

TRENDING MEDIA EVENT

tile.com.au

39

Each January, Beaumont Tiles is privileged to present ‘Trending’ to a range of media and design professionals. The yearly event is a snapshot of the hottest predicted tile and bathroomware trends, as well as technological advancements for the upcoming year. This year’s event was held at the Queen Victoria building, Sydney, a stunning backdrop with pastel pinks and marbles befitting the trending themes.

A result of carefully analysing industry and consumer insights from both local and global perspectives; together with attendance to the worlds largest tile design exhibitions, and in conjunction with style forecasts from industry trend leaders such as SCOUT, the Beaumonts team forecast the most relevant products for each of the retail, residential and commercial sectors.

This year was particularly significant for Beaumont Tiles celebrating 60 years. And so, the show began with a treat for guests, taking them down tile trend memory lane and the journey of Beaumonts over the past 60 years.

40

When R J Beaumont founded Beaumont Tiles with a single store in Adelaide, unglazed mosaic floor tiles were the Aussie go to for all bathroom design.

Fast forward six decades and tile selections have notably shifted to embrace colour, texture, size and pattern. The styles and technologies that Beaumont’s has introduced to Australia has meant that everyone from mum and dad DIYers right through to commercial builders have had easy access to the latest advancements in products that make their dream projects simple to achieve. Recent examples of this are Beaumonts exclusive slab tiles sized up to 3-metre tiles, in-store Exclusive Visualiser, InstaLay underlay and Microtec tile technologies. And it is this continued push for innovation that you can see reflected in Beaumonts ‘trends to watch’ of 2020.

At the media event, the six styles to watch in 2020 were revealed.

Expect to see your favourite tiles of the year inspired by some of the following key elements.

41

Unearthed Life Worn and treasured, Unearthed Life reflects people’s desire to explore the purity of objects.

Think unfinished materials and rustic textures, misshapen ceramics and an open celebration of imperfection.

42

Referenced Life Lovers of luxury from every era will be in their element with Referenced Life. Referenced motifs from art deco, Bauhaus, 40s, 70s and soul are all blurred to create a soft medley of iconic design notes that is warm and inviting in appearance.

43

Foraged Life Eclectic and creative, Foraged Life takes elements from both Scandinavian and Russian design, blending them into an organic wood-like setting. Earthy tones, with a casual and relaxed aura that is eclectic and creative, are the best way to achieve this look.

44

Life Kind Mass consumption is ebbing, and in its place is a paring back of our need to acquire unnecessary items and taking a more mindful approach. From this the term ‘slow-sumption’ has been coined, and Life Kind reflects this broader social consciousness towards responsible living.

Life Agenda Life Agenda is an incredible hierarchy of elements spanning handwoven cloth textures, romantic timber patinas, rich colour pallets of deep blues, burgundy and bronze. Then contrasted with pops of grey and green.
