The High-End Response to the Metro Tile

13th December 2016

By Emily Thompson

Metro tiles have been all the rage for over a year now and these classic, modest tiles have been seen for decades in tube stations across Europe. Timeless and elegant, these simple tiles ooze effortless style. We knew that we wanted to add a metro tile to our range but we wanted it to be special. And boy, oh boy did we find a beauty! So here we are, let me introduce our new Bianco Carrara C Honed Marble Splashback tile to you.

Sourced in Italy these beautiful white tiles have striking grey veining throughout with a honed surface and chamfered edge. The delicate veining adds depth and interest to the tile whilst the cool white tones retain a brightness which bounces from surface to surface. These contemporary tiles will look stunning in a well-lit kitchen or cosy bathroom. They can also be laid vertically which adds a very glamourous feel to a room and due to their classic nature, the tiles offer longevity in style against most interiors. They are certainly the high-end response to the metro tile!

As Marble is making a big comeback, what better way to add this stunning material to your home, than in the shape of a metro tile (195 x 95 x 10 to be exact!). As a classic material, it can go with both contemporary and traditional interiors and will stand the test of time. They are certainly gaining a lot of interest and we know this tile is going to be very popular going into 2017. For more product information please click here.
