Nemo Tile + Stone, a New York City-based provider of top-performing surface materials, has unveiled Isla. This innovative series of porcelain stoneware tiles offers a bold reinterpretation of mid-century design, combining geometric forms with natural imperfections to create spaces with unique decorative character.
"Isla represents our commitment to blending classic craftsmanship with contemporary design," says Kiara Perdomo, director of product development at Nemo Tile + Stone. "The collection's soft color palette and dual-finish approach create visual interest and dimension within the medium-sized tile, perfect for designers seeking to make a sophisticated statement in commercial, hospitality and residential spaces."
The Isla collection features eight porcelain tile options in an 8- x 8-inch format, including four glossy single-color finishes and four patterned counterparts. The solid tiles come in four timeless colors: Coral, White, Green and Sand. Each color is paired with a Deco counterpart featuring soft unique flowing shapes and tone-on-tone three-dimensional effects that can be arranged into various unique wall patterns. These four decorative tiles showcase a “deep glaze” effect, resulting in unique and varied designs with unevenly poured glazes that create edges and textures reminiscent of handmade craftsmanship.
A combination of glossy and matte finishes, the collection offers endless pattern possibilities, allowing for whimsical, personalized designs. Isla’s unique 8- x 8-inch format, unlike traditional square tiles, gives a more interesting appeal to the designs while creating the illusion of larger patterns. The collection’s solid tiles are perfect for floors and walls, while the Deco tiles are suitable for walls, inviting creative combinations that transform interiors into dynamic statements.
