Ketley Staffordshire Blue 65mm quarry tiles form a striking basket‑weave floor in the ground level of this Dorset country house. Their deep, natural blue tones bring an understated sense of permanence to the renovation, settling into the building’s character as though they have always been there.

Marwan’s installation showcases real craftsmanship incorporating subtle changes in laying patterns to define the flow of the home, and finishing the perimeter with perfectly matched coved base round‑top skirtings for a crisp, elegant edge. The result is a highly practical floor that feels both timeless and beautifully made.
