As a developing enterprise, ASA Tiles not only work on the growth of business, but also focus on social engagement.
Earlier, we were invited to participate in a school anniversary tiles printing event. In the two-days event, we provided tiles and the students created a tiles printing with the guidance of tutor.
The tutor designed the general picture in advance. Before the event begun, the tutor drew the draft of the print across the tiles. Then, we gave each student a piece of tile and let them add colours on it. They also put their own ideas and creation onto the tiles.
In the process, the tutor guided the students to reflect on the project and told them the importance of details, as they all started this magnificent printing from small parts. They also learnt the value of teamwork and communication during the project. At the end of the day, the tiles printing was a team effort.
We, as the tiles manufacturer, feel equally on how valuable and important details are. A high-quality piece of tile, could only be made with many fine details adding together. Seeing the students adding the colours they wanted with each stroke, made us felt touched.
After the students finished printing the tiles, we put the tiles on the wall and formed the complete and wonderful printing. We were honoured to be a part of this meaningful event, and we were delighted to see how much potential tiles have as art and craft.

I usually paint on paper and canvas. Painting on ceramic tiles is a new attempt for Elaine. When I write, I feel fresh and challenging. The whole creative process brings her a new experience and a little new reflection.
In love with the streets of Hong Kong, Elaine has always used watercolors to document the appearance of our city, especially the streets with a taste of "old Hong Kong". For her, the effect of painting on the tiles is better than imagined, because the appearance of the street and the tiles are put together, and it turns out that they blend in just right.
"Affected by the old street signs, I have always liked metal signboards, so I especially love the earthy color system. Using tiles of the corresponding color as the drawing board, there is no need to add more content due to the background color of the painting. The artistic conception and composition of the "blank" The sense of space on the top is exceptionally present."
In addition to the color matching, the texture of the creation on tiles is also different from the usual creation on paper and canvas.
"Some tiles are not smooth, but have unique textures, and the texture is very different from ordinary drawing boards. Such tiles, after the corresponding composition, the work will appear more real. It turns out that a painting can not only bring out visual enjoyment. , Creators can provide one more sensory way for viewers to appreciate the work-tactile rather than visual."
So, does this new creative attempt still give Elaine more new experiences?
"I have always said that I like old things. The valuable thing about old things is that we must protect them. Their fragility makes people cherish them. Or, if we don’t cherish them, I’m afraid we won’t be able to do it again soon. Seeing it. Tiles give me the same feeling. If you don’t pay attention, the creation on the brick surface will no longer be the original. Because of this, I must always remind myself that in the life of non-stop creation, I must not forget it. We must always value, stare at and cherish every work."
The possibility that ceramic tiles can be shaped has gone beyond the inherent ideas all the time!

The watermelon cake craze has swept across Australia, and the watermelon cakes in Hong Kong must be reminded of Lifetastic, a unique cafe. Recently, the newly opened branch in Tsim Sha Tsui is full of design, which matches well with the fresh and gorgeous watermelon cake. The restaurant was designed by Max Lam Designs and won the "Restaurant and Bars Design Awards" and "UK A&D trophy awards, Hong Kong". The idea of Max Lam Designs comes from the distinct layering and elegant theme of the watermelon cake.
"Grand" is a feeling and a concept. The designer uses multiple layers of noble and elegant colors to match the watermelon cake with distinct layers. The floor is made of marble tiles of different colors to form an arrow-string pattern, which is gorgeous and practical, and has the function of guiding the way visually. The upper layer of the wall body and ceiling color is distinct, and the lighter and darker colors are progressive. The use of tiles of the same color creates an arc-shaped line extending from the wall to the ceiling, which merges into one.
The designer cleverly used geometric elements and metal to guide the way to divide the restaurant seats into several areas to meet the needs of different guests. The sea-blue sofa area allows the family to rest and relax; the "High table" seat is suitable for couples and close friends; the VIP round table area is more private and is the best choice for friends. Different areas are connected with noble and elegant themes. The designer makes good use of various circles and arcs, and the atmosphere feels softer and more comfortable, creating a relaxing space for guests to forget their short-term fatigue.
The center of the restaurant is the food area. The design is mainly gray and white natural marble, seamlessly connecting the wall and the cake display cabinet. Marble along the grain is simple and noble, setting off the colorful watermelon cake with rich layers. The whole design shows different areas in an elegant style, and the layering of watermelon cake is assembled with simple and noble masonry paving.
ASA Tiles adheres to the insistence on quality and is committed to providing designers with materials of different styles to achieve exquisite and magnificent artworks.
The head of the household purchased a 8,000-foot Mount Pavilia unit, hoping that the design would brighten the house. The design of the whole house is based on the theme of nobility and elegance. Simple design furniture is selected, matched with pure and endless marble patterns, and natural light sources are introduced in pure white and bright tones. Such unique ingenuity comes from RAZ Interiors, and the rich design experience of large-scale units allows the thousand-eight-foot unit to implement the noble and elegant style.
The designer cleverly used the features of the unit and used the drawings to connect the kitchen and the living room. The semi-open kitchen is equipped with flawless glass, and the living room also uses floor-to-ceiling glass, which immediately strengthens the visual extension, and is not busy looking at the mountains and forests when the kitchen is busy. In addition to the open landscape, it also doubles the sense of space.
The design of the living room is dominated by marble patterns and elegant furnishings, and the terrazzo and marble patterns are connected and extended to the entire space. The most eye-catching feature wall takes the 1.8-meter-long giant marble brick as the protagonist, and is matched with the golden background wall, which is more noble and not vulgar. The manufacture of large marble tiles is more difficult, and the requirements for flatness and surface treatment are higher than those of ordinary tiles. In addition to carefully selected materials, construction also requires experience and exquisite handwork.
The designer took into consideration the outdoor environment and integrated the green shade into the elegant and chic house. An ingenious design, the Christmas tree in the pavilion uses the principle space to highlight the advantages of the unit's height, while at the same time it can bring in the mountain view into the house and reflect each other with the shade of the trees outside the house. The Christmas tree stands in the pavilion, where you can see the green scenery from any position in the house, which achieves the effect of greening the home, and at the same time it is open and comfortable.
Based on the insistence on quality, ASA Tiles is committed to providing designers with materials of different styles to achieve noble and elegant artworks.
In addition to considering the design style, home decoration should also take into account the practicality of the space, and consider the safety of the users as far as the family members are concerned. Now, there are more and more pet owners. As owners, they have to take care of fur children's comfort at the same time. Let's take a look at the key points of design company CHEER HOME when you want to design the home for fur children, so that "owners" are satisfied with this home!
Key 1: Shoe cabinets in the hallway and seat cabinets for hanging clothes are convenient for cleaning the hairy children
After going out, the soles of the shoes will inevitably bring the dust and dirt out of the street home. If you don't want to be touched by the hairy child, you can set up a shoe cabinet and a space for hanging clothes in the entrance to avoid bringing all kinds of bacteria into the house. The seat cabinet is convenient for the owner to clean the dog who has just returned home, and the outing cage of the furry child can also be placed here.
Key 2: Avoid designing ceiling lamp troughs to install cat springboards and cat walkways
Cats love high places. For example, if there is a ceiling lamp slot in the house, an active cat will use the cabinet top to jump into the lamp slot, or even step on the lamp tube to cause accidents. There are cat springboards and cat walkways in the decoration, which can give the master more space for activities. In addition, the springboard and walkway should be high enough and wide enough, and have enough load-bearing capacity.
Point 3: Arrange a sunbathing space
Cats love to bask in the sun. In addition to keeping warm, they can also supplement vitamin D to enhance the immunity of their owners and furry children. If the unit does not have a window sill, a cat springboard can be installed beside the window.
Key 4: Concealed tube design for wire configuration
Tutu loves to chew on wires, and adopts a concealed tube design to prevent the wires from being exposed to prevent short circuits and electric shocks caused by hairy children's bites.
Point 5: Design a relaxing space for the exclusive fur child
Cats love dark and narrow spaces; most of the furry kids who have just taken home are more afraid of people. If there is enough space in the home, you can design a play area or a potty place, so that they can have their own little world and relax.
In addition to the above decoration points, you should also pay attention to the selection of home materials and furnishings. For example, the floor material is not easy to fade, will not be corroded by urine or vomit, and is not easy to be scratched by cat's claws; sofas should also be selected to resist cat's claws. The fabric and the waterproof function are easy to clean.
Asia ceramic tiles are wear-resistant, anti-corrosive, anti-bacterial and deodorant to protect the health of your fur. Design cooperation contact 2152 1900 or 9686 6482.
Case provided: CHEER HOME You want to live at home
Residential areas are exposed to air pollution and bacteria, which have a direct impact on the human body. According to some research, the higher negative ions in your surroundings, the better our health would be. When breathing around nature such as forests, waterfalls, and mountains, we can feel the freshness because it has high concentrations of negative ions to purify the air. PuriTiles® healthy and antibacterial tile series using Oxy Tech® technology to bring nature secrets to your house.
The 3 health secrets of PuriTiles® series:
1. Purify the air and remove formaldehyde
The furniture, boards, paint, viscose, etc. that we have contact with every day causing indoor pollution. Those could continuously release free formaldehyde and toluene. Especially in new decorated houses, excessive formaldehyde is still high. PuriTiles® health tiles using Oxy Tech™, which can generate more than 1000 negative ions reaching the level of nature, will release negative ions steadily and lastingly. By releasing a high concentration of negative ions, formaldehyde and toluene are being neutralized. According to the national building materials industry-standard test (JC/T 2110-2012), PuriTiles® has a purification rate of formaldehyde and toluene of more than 70% within 24 hours, which can keep indoor air fresh for a long time.
2. Prevent growth and reproduction of bacteria and fungus
Tile cleaning is tricky because it possibly still hides some dirts around the gap. Those dirts carry some bacteria that could infect anyone in many ways. For example, the E. coli that pops out when flushing the toilet has a chance to patch at tiles unknowingly. ASA Tiles high-temperature nano wear-resistant glaze, with smaller surface voids so that dirt has nowhere to absorb and has the effect of anti-fouling as well as being easy to clean. Oxy Tech™ technology has passed the international ASTM G22-76 test, with this technology PuriTiles® effectively inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungus. Prevention is better than cure.
3. Reduce mold growth
Humidity in Hong Kong has always been a challenge. From the first season through the summer, the bathroom wall tiles, and floor tiles usually get wet, and even moldy, black, or smelly, which is unpleasant. High-density wall tiles and floor tiles reduce the growth of mold and reduce dampness. PuriTiles® burned at a hot temperature of 1000 degrees, and the high-density brick body is waterproof and moisture-proof. The water absorption rate is 0.1% (ASTM C373, EN ISO 10545-3), which makes PuriTiles® a suitable long-term solution to the problem of water from inside to outside of wall tiles and floor tiles and the troubles of molds on homes.
Choosing the right flooring tiles to ensure safety and lasting comfort is mandatory. PuriTiles® series technology has everything you need to create a healthy home.
