Villa Lagoon Tile is a classic, colorful, and durable covering for floors and walls. This type of tile is called Encaustic Cement Tile in the States and various forms of Mosaico in other parts of the world. Now this ancient form of mosaic floor tile is available in patterns and colors to coordinate with North American decor.

Our emphasis is on tile designs that reflect both casual and formal coastal living. Villa Lagoon Tile is perfect for waterfront and inland applications... suitable for both commercial and residential locations.

Cement tile is a green product, created using basic earth components and a centuries old method. They are colored with natural pigments and do not give off any fumes at all. Minimum energy, except human 'elbow grease', is used to make our cement tiles.

We believe that Villa Lagoon Tile is the most indestructible, decorative and handsome floor and wall tile on the market. Each tile is hand made to order in the same way that hydraulic encaustic tiles have been crafted since 1857.

When these exceptional tiles are rotated and combined, magical things can happen. See the Glory of the Sea floor tile design by clicking the image above.

The traditional way to design a cement tile floor is with a central tile rug, surrounded by a patterned tile border and solid color cenent tiles out to the walls.
