Bianco Carrara Collection

Bianco Carrara Collection from thebuilderdepot.com

While it is not the most organized picture.  It certainly shows how the collection as a whole blends well together.  This month we have received in over 80 pallets of Carrara Bianco Marble tile.  The quality of stone is better than 2011, the current Carrara lots have a very white base with crisp clean veining throughout the tiles and mosaics (as the picture shows).  Order a sample and see for yourself at www.thebuilderdepot.com

The picture shows  from far left Carrara Bianco Stella Long Octagon, Carrara Bianco 2″ Hexagon Mosaic, 3×6″ Carrara Subway in brick format, two tiles of Carrara Bianco 3×8″, next to that is Carrara Bianco 2×4″ mosaic.  The trims include (at the bottom) Carrara Bianco Skirting, Carrara Bianco Pencil and Chair Rail.

Designing With Carrara Subway Tiles – No Longer Hip to Be Square

It was July 26th 2009 over two and a half years ago since we created the article “Designing With Carrara Subway Tiles – No Longer Hip to Be Square”  and published it on an article submission website.  What is amazing to me is that the article has been copied and reproduced over 1,000 times. With everyone and anyone selling something loosely related to to Subway tiles (Carrara or otherwise) using the article.  Even major blue chip corporations have used the article – I know this is without knowledge of the article being the copyright of  someone else.

For the most part everyone links back to our website, which has created huge success in the fight for dominance in Google.  The link back to http://www.thebuilderdepot.com is payment enough.

It is a pleasant enough article and amazing how even 2 1/5 years ago subway tiles had become even more popular.  The USA 5 years ago loved square tiles, if you see any commercial building that uses natural stone marble it is adorned with square tiles.  New construction (which unfortunately is few and far between) adopt the more modern large format 12×24″ or 9×18″ subway tiles.  The larger format is new – but of course as the article suggests 3×6″ or 3×8″ is nothing new.  It covered the New York subway system from 1904.  But still by marble standards (for over 2,000 years people have been using marble) subway tiles, having gained popularity for over just 100 years is still a modern format.
