Tile

On a recent trip to New York for ICFF I came across this chic new ‘living’ tile. This product plays with light and shadows, diffusing them throughout the tile to give a truly unique look to a counter top, backsplash or even a floor.  There is movement in the material, a reflection of light and shade reflecting the movement and life in the space.  Think of a using it as a room divider, letting the luminosity from adjoining rooms create different experiences as you move through the space.

There are a few different tiles made with this technology; an acrylic tile made with the same acrylic polymer as aquariums and a terrazzo version which is micro concrete embedded with light channels.  These channels bend light, transferring it from one point to another achieving a twinkle effect.  Both tiles are resistant to staining and scratching.  They can be used indoors and out for a myriad of possibilities. Let us help you put this distinctive material in your next project!
