End to end
Designastyle in Christchurch offers a complete tile experience, from inspiration and selection through to expert installation.
For more than three decades, Designastyle has been helping Cantabrians create beautiful interiors. Established in 1994, the independent, family-owned business offers both tile supply and professional installation, which means a seamless experience from design through to project completion.
At the heart of its approach is a belief that exceptional design should be accessible. The showroom brings together an extensive and carefully curated selection, from premium Italian and European collections to durable, value-driven ranges that suit a variety of styles and budgets.
Through a diverse supplier network, it brings the latest international design trends to Christchurch at highly competitive prices.
Recent European influences mean that cool greys are giving way to warmer palettes, with travertine and limestone-look tiles emerging as favourites for their organic character and natural appeal. Earthy tones such as terracotta, sand and taupe create calm, inviting spaces, and textured matt or high-gloss finishes add depth and tactile interest. Larger-format tiles minimise grout lines, delivering a more seamless aesthetic for quiet luxury.
Designastyle has also embraced softer interpretations of classic retro patterns, such as checkerboard, but in tonal variations like cream and terracotta, with exclusive South Island access to patterned options by Winckelmans. Artisan-inspired options such as glossy Zellige-style tiles and finger mosaics are sought after for splashbacks and feature walls.
More than a supplier, Designastyle’s strength lies in its genuine customer care, including complimentary in-house design consultations, personalised local support and their own experienced installation team using BRANZ-appraised materials. Whether renovating a bathroom or completing a large-scale development, Designastyle always aims to deliver cost-effective design and a flawless finish.
