Grow your tile knowledge with CPD sessions

Join Parkside’s RIBA approved CPD seminar sessions at its Clerkenwell Sustainability and Design Studio to keep your career progressing and expand your knowledge on how tiles can contribute to great design and better sustainability in your projects.

Unlocking knowledge on how to best specify bespoke surfaces, innovations in sustainable surface materials and how to use tiling patterns effectively, you can catch any of Parkside’s RIBA approved CPD seminars during morning and afternoon sessions at its Clerkenwell Sustainability Studio.

Taking a journey through how the tile specification sector is meeting the challenge of environmental change, ‘Sustainable Surface Materials’ is a RIBA accredited CPD for everyone involved in the specification of finishes. Improving understanding of the environmental impact of tiles, ‘Sustainable Surface Materials’ explains how the industry is adopting recycled content, recycling and efficient manufacturing to bring about positive change.

‘Creative Tile Fabrication’ looks at how to use bespoke fabrication processes to specify creative tile designs in commercial and residential interiors. Helping you to understand the ins and outs of good non-standard specifications, ‘Creative Tile Fabrication’ gives you the knowledge to design bespoke surfaces and how bespoke tile fabrication can add value to your project.

Introducing tiling patterns through the world of tessellations, symmetry, repeats and mathematical rules, ‘An Introduction to Tiling Patterns’ will leave you equipped with an understanding of the rules of patterns and mathematics – and how to break them – as well as how these principles can be successfully used in interiors.

Terrazzo Tiles explores the world of Terrazzo and technical stone tiles. Topics covered include how terrazzo and technical stone is made, the history of terrazzo and its revival in recent years. The CPD seminar also looks at how manufacturing of terrazzo and stone composites might develop and how it is currently being used in a range of projects across the globe.

James Journet, sales and design director, Parkside says,

“Our CPD seminar programme expands knowledge of tiles and how they can be used to contribute to the design and sustainability of commercial interiors. The programme is varied and offers the chance for specifiers and designers to explore the design, technical and environmental aspects of tiling. Held in our inspiring studio, our Clerkenwell CPD sessions are open to anyone that wants to truly understand the benefits of using tiles within their interior projects.”

The CPD seminars are presented in a programme of morning and afternoon sessions at Parkside’s Clerkenwell Sustainability and Design Studio, or can be held in offices across the UK.
