More Is More

These tiles pack in pattern, colour and texture for design that doesn’t hold back

CELES-TILE BODY

Amid the starbursts of Calacatta Oro marble in the Étoile pattern of Mosaïque Surface’s Rêve d’orient collection, mirrored steel accents pick up movement and reflect ambient light. Taken together, they shine. From $178.50/sq ft, at Surfaces & Co.

MACRODOSE

With bright, psychedelic hues of blue, purple and orange contrasting a recurring triangular motif, the large-format ceramic slabs of Florim’s Araldica collection feel like marble on an acid trip. From $22.60/sq ft, at Centura Tile

JUST VIBES

When laid next to one another, the seaside, floral and avian motifs adorning Cevica’s hexagonal Good Vibes collection resemble a cozy quilt – just the thing to blanket a bathroom. From $12/sq ft, at Tilesinspired

IT’S NOT DELIVERY

Forty-one elements and patterns, from simple stripes to stylized florals, make up Mutina’s Mattonelle Margherita collection. Just imagine the creativity of topping pizzas, only in porcelain. From $18.40/sq ft, at Stone Tile

OLD AS YOU FEEL

The material in Lithea’s 18-tile Maioliche di Pietra collection – volcanic stone mined from the foot of Mount Etna – may be ancient, but each individual bas relief feels like pure geometric modernism. From $326/sq ft, at ITALDESIGN
