SOLUS CERAMICS REINVENTS
TRADITIONAL TERRRACOTTA Solus Ceramics has launched a new tile range inspired by traditional terracotta. Nostalgia is an intriguing wall range that merges vintage quality with chic color options and modern patterned décors.
Nostalgia is most notably characterised by the charmingly imperfect colouration of the plain coloured tiles, with each piece showcasing a distinctly hand painted style. This unique design is complemented by shadowy brushstrokes, exposed edges and what appear to be worn and distressed corners. These evocative features are all intentional and give the robust ceramic tiles the feeling that they are aged or reclaimed, adding to the overarching theme of ‘nostalgia’.
Nostalgia features a wide array of plain colour options including popular beige and white shades, but also includes deep greens, warm mustard and cloudy greys.
The tiles within the Nostalgia range are available in a 100x200mm size, which is ideal for most wall designs and are also supplied in a single natural finish, giving the tiles a distinctive matt effect. The surface of each tile is also slightly uneven adding to the rustic beauty of the range.

to withstand heavy traffic over a long period, Millerbourne Architects looked towards carpet tiles as the solution.
Christian Richards, who played a key role in the specification process, explained: “Flooring choice was central to the development of this interior scheme. We were anxious that the carpet tiles would not only provide a sophisticated grey look, but also deliver a combination of durability and ease of maintenance. This is exactly what’s been achieved through Christy Carpets’ Relax collection and its Antron Lumena fibre, and we would have no
hesitations in specifying the product again on future projects.”
Antron Lumena fibre features a multi- hollow cross-section that reduces the appearance of soiling, perfect in an education environment, and as a solution-dyed fibre comprises a molecular structure that makes it difficult for dirt to stick. Further to simple maintenance, this performance fibre is also lightfast and stain-resistant, helping the striking RLX10 Relax carpet tiles to stay looking good for longer.
