Have you heard? Black is the new black. That’s right! As we forecast color trends for the new year, we’re finding that black is back—in full and beautiful force. As a matter of fact, we’re taking you to the dark side in our 2018 Color Trend Look Book.
With black as the backbone, 2018’s bold palette is aligned to offer a stunning, sophisticated chapter for commercial and residential design in the coming year. Black, and its many variations, offers endless design possibilities, working beautifully alone and playing extremely well with others. It’s a classic that will always stand the test of time. We’re proud to offer our take on the palette that offers romance, balance, and texture in the flawless performance of porcelain tile, stone, and gauged porcelain tile panels. Here’s a look at some of our products that bring bold energy to the spaces you live, work, and play.
