Trompe l’oeil leads the way for tile trends in 2013, as tile makers such as Ceramica Sant’Agostino, Fioranese and Refin Ceramiche, amongst others, perform visual alchemy. Creative new tile stamping, printing and mosaic processes make it easy to deceive the eye. Now ceramic, porcelain and stone tiles can be designed to faithfully mimic natures most exquisite woods – from Mahogany to Oak to Cherry and more.
The Timber collection from Peronda was inspired by the rich look of aged wood.
Inspired by 17th century parquetry wood floors, New Ravenna Mosaics introduces their new Parquet Collection which recreates the beauty of parquet floors using stone and mosaic. Shown here: The “Truman” in Driftwood.
The “Lodge” porcelain tile collection from Settecento offers the warmth, beauty and appearance of weathered “wood” planks without the maintenance associated with wood flooring.
