Textiles in interior applications can add warmth and dimension to a room, but they can also collect dust, hold odors, fade, and stain easily. Advances in digital printing technology are making printed ceramic and porcelain tiles a viable alternative to heavy fabric applications for both residential and commercial wall and floor coverings.
Below are some of the newest textile-inspired tile collections that ARCHITECT saw at Cersaie 2017. Read about other tile trends from this year’s tile and bathroom fixture show here.
