Did you hire a professional for this project?: No

Tips: The styrofoam tiles are not perfectly square. Some are bigger, some are smaller, some of their corners aren't perfectly peaked. After laying a few rows, we figured this out. Most walls aren't perfectly straight or even, either. We did a lot of searching through the tiles to find one that was well fit to the space we wanted to fill. It took more time, but looks great. There are still a few tiny gaps where the four corners meet, which I will fill in with black paint.

Describe Your Project: My husband wanted his home office to be classy but "dingy". He referenced the salon/parlor in the newer Sherlock Holmes movies. We went with dark/dramatic paint colors and dark furniture, but brought in a pop of color with the bronze of the ceiling tiles. We chose the fan to complement the warmer ceiling tones.

Would You Recommend This Project To A Friend And Why?: Yes, definitely. Tiles are more expensive than painting, but they do so much more for a room. Is someone wants to add a lux feel to a space, this is the product for it. It is high impact with not all that much work.

How Was Your Experience With Our Company And Why?: The product is quality, shipping was quick - we'd definitely buy from you again!
