César’s Captivating Cement

Finding one exciting, novel tile design is wonderful. Finding an entire catalogue feels like magic. And when we came across César Bazaar we knew we’d stumbled across a font of wonder. Rather than utilise labour from abroad, the cement tiles of César Bazaar are made in France, with pieces of the country residing within each tile including sand from the Oise, marble powder from the … Continue reading César’s Captivating Cement

Popham x Mapoesie

Despite featuring their tiles in countless Interior inspo posts, Cyberspace Curiosities, and trends pieces, we’ve somehow never actually given the wonderful Popham Design an article of its own. But today that changes. Collaborating with luxury French lifestyle brand Mapoésie, Popham Design presents a trio of colourful abstract patterns – Calice, Nazaré, and Celeste. The curious curves of Calice take their inspiration from chain mail, and … Continue reading Popham x Mapoesie

Hoffmann

Much Love Me

A mixture of delft, patchwork, and graffiti make up Much Love Me by South African artist Ruan Hoffmann for Clé Tile. The collection is a pared back version of his usual work that’s often filled with colour, emotional figures, and multiple layers of abstraction. Though toned down, many of his signatures remain, such as naive florals and a love for swirls and imperfect geometry. Both … Continue reading Much Love Me

Iris Ceramica‘s Freehand is both good and interesting, taking a watercolour approach, mixed with abstract shapes, decorative lines, and brush strokes. … Continue reading Freeform Freehand
