Mosa’s Classics Tide collection soars with new sweeping colors
Mosa launches new colors in Classics Tide artisanal style collection
The extension of the collection pays homage to generations of Mosa craftsmanship with a soaring palette of 10 painterly, coastal-inspired colors.
The Dutch tiles manufacturer expands her range of Classics Tide ceramic tiles with two new colors: sand and forest green. The series combines vibrant warmth and textural appeal, typically associated with an artisanal style. Distinguished by a versatile, compact shape and highly engineered features. While keeping a contemporary look and feel due to its straight edges, it mimics a hand pressed clay body. Various visual depths and subtle movement in the glazing technique ensure lively and striking surfaces without repetition.
Ten coastal- inspired colors
The Mosa Classics Tide series consists of ten soft, rich colors that evoke the painterly energy of sweeping coastlines. The color names express their gentle, yet irresistible charm. Choose from Serene White, Fog Grey, Bone Blue, Mist, Charcoal Grey, Blush, Rust, Sand, Sage, and Forest Green tiles to imbue spaces with calm, textural warmth or to create striking, lively surfaces.
Compact sizing for versatility in installation
By embracing the versatility of a small rectangular format, the 4x8 inch Classics Tide tiles are effortlessly adaptable for the public and hospitality sector. Like any rectangular shaped tile, Classics Tide can be set vertically, horizontally, offset, or linear, as well as in herringbone style patterns for subtle whole-space installations or outspoken feature walls. The straight edged tiles make installation easy and glazed-edge trim ensures a top-quality finish.
Complementary floor tiles for complete creative freedom
Classics Tide can be paired with Mosa floor tile collections, presenting waves of design possibilities from contrasting to monochrome, warm to cool, light to dark, subtle, or striking. A selection of complementary floor tiles from the Mosa Core Collection has also been hand-selected by the Mosa design team for each of the Classics Tide colors for ease in creating a cohesive look. The modular wall-floor concept also allows for flawless alignment of pattern in lively spaces.
