Reinvigorate with a biophilic palette

Nature-inspired designs are in this summer, and our 1901 collection is a go-to for bringing the beauty of the great outdoors into your home. Showcasing soothing tones inspired by the Astral trend - think brightening, sky blue or luscious bottle green tiles, balanced by classic neutrals like white, black and grey tiles - these luxurious glazed ceramic tiles tell a story of our history, while embodying everything that modern design has to offer.

Create a light and airy feel with modern marble

Stylishly sophisticated yet effortlessly modern, majestic marbles are a must for your summer-revived space. Featuring two colourways of Taupe and White, both patterned with elegant vein detailing, beautiful Bianco is a marble-effect tile range that'll uplift your bathroom, kitchen or living area with a bright, airy feel, while oozing opulence.

Sumptuous and serene stone tiles

Transform your home with our range of stone-effect tiles.

Here we have used our Haven wall tiles in Sand Rockfall Structure with a matt finish to add organic movement to an ensuite bathroom. Reminiscent of genuine crosscut stone, the swirling mineral veins are simple and elegant, while the silky smooth texture and chic neutral colour palette are certain to reinvigorate any bathroom. They pair perfectly with the Sandbar Structure tiles (also in Sand) and contrasting black shower frame and bathroom accessories, for a design that is minimalist and striking in equal measure.

Rustic structures for spaces that feel as good as they look

Today, design transcends visual aesthetics to appeal to all the senses, helping users to relax and unwind in style. When raw, organic textures are stealing the spotlight, collections like Melrose will make a great addition to your summer DIY project. A rustic structure finished with a glossy glaze gives these tiles an authentic handcrafted aesthetic, and an on-trend slim format of 245x75mm provides a modern, refined look fit for any space.

The five neutral tones including Stone, Slate and Moss all provide natural colour variation, making them perfect for busy, high use areas like the kitchen splashback.

Prove that less really is more with a minimalist bathroom

Both calming and contemporary, no modern interior is complete without a classic concrete effect tile. Marco marries a warming, biophilic colour palette with a softly textured surface which can be used to create depth-enhancing feature walls - a versatile look that seamlessly transforms any interior into a relaxing retreat.

Pair with matching 600x600mm floor tiles that are made with up to 50% recycled content and have a PTV 36+ slip resistant rating making them great for bathrooms, kitchens and high traffic areas like hallways.
