In 2015, MDC Mosaics and Tiles transformed a back deck into an elegant outdoor entertainment area. The family wanted a multipurpose space in their home that their growing kids could safely use and enjoy. For the design, the homeowners preferred to steer clear of modern monochrome styles for a truly timeless feel. On the functionality end, they sought for high resilience and resistance to extreme Australian climate without the need for constant maintenance and cleaning.

MDC Mosaics and Tiles met the project requirements of the family with some of the finest choices in their eclectic mix of tiles: Moroccan-inspired feature wall tiles, timber look floor tiles, and Bluestone tiles for the fireplace.

The family opted for Moroccan designs in the feature wall tiles to contribute an antique or retro vibe to the outdoor entertainment area. The feature wall tiles are expertly crafted with scrupulous attention to detail and pleasing aesthetics - the MDC Mosaics and Tiles trademark since day one. The earthy hues give a visual pick-me-up in an instant, especially when basking in the afternoon sunshine.

Timber look floor tiles make it seem like the outdoor entertainment area had always been there. The strong woodgrain texture of the timber look floor tiles makes for a rustic aged quality that will hold its visual appeal in the long run. This look also helped camouflage natural dust and dirt in an outdoors setting. In addition, the surface of the tiles will resist any smouldering or scorch marks due to embers from the fireplace, while accommodating heavy duty wear and tear. Along with the intricate designs of the feature wall tiles, the recycled style of the timber look floor tiles delivers a pleasing contrast to the Bluestone tiles used for the fireplace.

The Bluestone tiles on the hearth complement the element of fire to provide a relaxed and organic ambience. Using high-quality natural stone, the tiles are hardwearing to withstand the heat of the fireplace in the long run. They discourage thermal conductivity, so the homeowners can freely lounge around the nook even when the fireplace is in use. The tiles also come in matte finish to prevent the glare of the sun in people's eyes. Using a Bullnose tile, the edging of the seat is soft for the utmost comfort of users.

Mapei from MDC Mosaics and Tiles supplied the waterproofing products, adhesives and grouts used to prepared the slab. The top-of-the-line building products ensured seamless joints between the tiles without chemical reactions for a job done well and fast.

The result is the laidback outdoor entertainment area that the family had envisioned for their covered deck. The homeowners are thrilled by how a weatherproof and low maintenance outdoor space can be so stylish - testament to MDC Mosaics and Tiles' commitment to customer satisfaction.
