The Textured Luxury of Architectural Tile

Architectural tiles go beyond the purely functional and become an integral part of a space's aesthetic and architectural design. They are often statement pieces used to create a bold landscape with dramatic shadows and other 3-D effects.

In addition to their textural beauty, these tiles can help guide the landscape of your home. For example, going from a flat wall to architectural tile can provide visual separation between your kitchen and your living room by changing the very texture of the wall, rather than simply shifting from one color to another.

Types of Architectural Tile and Stone

Architectural tiles come in a stunning variety of materials, from reclaimed wood to exotic marble. (Stone varieties of architectural tile are sometimes also referred to as “ledger stone” or “stacked stone.”)

 

Reclaimed Wood

Reclaimed wood architectural tiles are a unique and stunning way to incorporate rustic charm and sustainability into your interior design. These wood tiles are crafted from salvaged wood like the hulls of decommissioned or sunken ships. This brings a rich history and character to your home that ordinary tiles simply can't match.

 

Limestone

Known for their natural beauty and durability, limestone architectural tiles are a classic, bright choice for adding dramatic elegance. Using limestone tiles to create a stacked stone fireplace will further accentuate their bold, blocky texture and provide a peaceful counterpoint to the tumultuous fire.

 

Quartzite

Quartzite architectural tiles offer some of the widest variety in color, both between different tiles and within the same tile. These natural stone architectural tiles range from a patchwork of earthy browns and greens to glimmering white.

 

Travertine

For an even more dramatic and natural look, travertine architectural tiles offer a rough-hewn texture on the face of each segment. In combination with the chunky brick wall texture typical of architectural tiles, the result is truly captivating.

 

Marble

A statement wall covered in marble architectural tiles evokes the ultimate sense of luxury. From bright white to dramatic black, the elegance can only be matched by the visual intrigue of these highly textured tiles.

 

Slate

For a rustic, weathered look that is highly durable, slate architectural tiles are a popular choice. Segments of rich earth tones are broken up by right angles and segments of various depths to provide a stylish contrast.
