Seeing the interior design industry show continued and resilient growth over the past few years has been amazing. Industry-wide, the underlying sentiment has been one of hope, optimism, and reinvention. In celebration of a phenomenal year for our industry, we'd like to share a year-end recap highlighting new products, the most popular blogs, top projects, and our 2022 digital look books.

Top New Products

We introduced over two dozen new products in 2022, and they were all fabulous, but here's a look at our top three product picks of the year.

Best New Outdoor Product: Lazy Daze 2CM

Designers love the realistic stone looks of this 2 cm thick exterior paver in sizes that can be used to create versatile patterns. Additionally, there is a matching tile in a traditional thickness, so you can use the same tile to flow from indoors to outdoors. Click here for the product details and to request a free sample.

Best Bang for your Buck: Soho Patterned Mosaics

Through an incredible fusion of colors and shapes, Soho's Patterned Mosaics redefine limits and possibilities. This series has so much breadth with multiple color pallets and fun and dynamic patterns that span from traditional to modern styles. The patterned mosaics coordinate beautifully with Soho Wall Tile and Soho Glazed Mosaics. And the best part? All three lines are affordable but definitely not boring!

Best New Large Format: Stones at Large

Inspired by some of the world's most sought-after earthen materials, Stones at Large delivers enduring luxury on a grand scale. From mosaics (including a fun leaf mosaic) up to an exciting 48' x 48," Stones at Large offers scalable luxury in both polished and unpolished finishes. Even better, this line is made by Crossville in the U.S.A! See all the elegant options and request a free sample here.

The Beauty and Functionality of Porcelain Tile Panels for Exterior Cladding

With the ability to skin various surfaces, our Porcelain Tile Panels by Laminam® offer many unique benefits, making them an ideal specification for exterior cladding. With dimensions of 1m x 3m (almost ten feet tall!), these generously sized panels install efficiently and with minimal joints, which helps achieve a sleek, uninterrupted look on building exteriors. The panels' lighter weight (compared to other exterior cladding options) is another advantage because fewer workers are needed to handle them, resulting in reduced labor costs.

The Latest Tile Style: Mixing Glossy & Matte Tiles

The latest interior design trend has designers mixing gloss and matte tiles — for good reasons. The two contrasting finishes produce a unique, beautiful aesthetic, creating visual interest that is dynamic and unexpected. Installing matte and polished tiles together creates a look that feels almost textured or patterned because of how the glossy tiles play with light when juxtaposed with the matte tiles. Click here to discover more about this design trend, learn how to perfect the look, and see our tile collections that align.
