If you’re looking for fresh ideas for your home renovation, you won’t want to miss these new stone- and marble-inspired tile collections available at riceLAB! Each collection expresses a distinctive style that brings a desired concept to your space, whether it’s the grandeur of noble European manors, the natural rugged beauty of Greece, the elegance of exclusive marbles, or the translucence of precious onyx. These latest tiles, with their alluring colour offerings and decorative choices, are testament to the continuous research and innovation of tile companies to produce designs that cater to the increasingly sophisticated tastes of homeowners, designers and architects. Using tiles instead of natural materials is a more sustainable option, as tiles are durable and low maintenance, plus they don’t have to be extracted from nature! Design-wise, there is also a larger variety of options compared to what nature can offer. Take a look for yourself with the standout examples below.

Cerdomus Pietra del Maniero – Stone-inspired tiles 

Imagine the grand halls of historic manors in France, England and Italy. The stones that create the experience of high living in these storied heritage buildings have been interpreted for modern abodes with the Pietra del Maniero stone-inspired tile collection by Cerdomus. With their natural hues and even tones, they bring timeless luxury to any space. The collection is available in five natural stone colours, three finishes, and four sizes, and includes a lush botanical mural Orangerie which consists of two 60cm by 120cm slabs.

Provenza Unique Marble – Marble-inspired tiles

The enduring appeal of classic marble meets the modern sensibilities of resin in the innovative Unique Marble marble-inspired tile collection by Provenza. Taking a cue from the world of interior design where resin is combined with natural materials, Provenza has taken five of the world’s most exclusive types of marble and paired them with resin in a cool glacial hue. The large format designs result in tiles that have astounding realism and depth, contrasted with the smoothness of the resin. Slabs in marble, and resin alone, are also available to create a variety of decorative possibilities. Tiles go up to 120cm by 278cm in size, and come in thicknesses of 6.5mm, 9.5mm and 10mm.

Emilceramica Tele Di Marmo Onyx – Onyx-inspired tiles

With their incredible depth and gorgeous translucency, the tiles of the onyx-inspired Emilceramica Tele Di Marmo collection seem to have achieved the impossible for a surfacing material. The lighter hues of Onyx Ivory and Onyx Pink sport delicate and refined tonal variations; Onyx Green and Onyx Blue feature contrasting veining colours in rust, while Onyx Black is an inky black washed through with shadows of pearl, ivory and rust. The tiles are available in various sizes and thicknesses. Although they appear to be supremely glossy, the tiles are safe, boasting SilkTech technology which combines non-slip performance with a ceramic surface that’s silky to the touch.

Emilceramica Tele di Marmo Selection – Marble-inspired tiles

If you are looking for a collection of striking colour contrasts and compositions with a strong visual impact, look to the Tele di Marmo Selection from Emilceramica. The collection showcases three exquisite marble-inspired designs  - Nero Marquinia, White Paradise and Arabescato Corchia in natural, and full lappato for a glossy finish. For those inclined to artistic statements, consider the Tarsia decor inspired by the traditional art of marble inlay. The motif of roses using the three marble patterns is feminine yet graphic and bold.

Ergon Oros – Stone-inspired tiles

There is a special quartzite from Greece which appears brighter than most, thanks to its naturally-occurring micro-crystals to reflect light. This clean, bright quality is what Emil Ceramica has captured with its Oros stone-inspired tile collection. The natural textured surfaces and choice of six colours, including three warm and three cool tones, provide versatility for use on floors and walls, and in both indoor and outdoor spaces. A more expressive split stone effect is also available.
