MARBLING MAGIC

Granby Workshop is putting a new spin on traditional ceramic tiles. After researching the historic methods used to produce encaustic tiles, the company decided to invent a modern technique. Instead of the colours and patterns being applied to the surface of the clay, it decided to form the colours from the clay itself – meaning that the patterns don’t fade as they wear. The colours are marbled together in a random fashion, making every floor or wall tile unique. £253 per square metre (granbyworkshop.co.uk).
