Trend Alert: Bold Hand-Painted Tiles by Designers and Artists

by Published: January 30, 2023

Just as indie movies made by auteurs are often more intriguing than standard Hollywood fare, handmade tiles designed by artists are often bolder and more interesting than their mass-market counterparts. Here are eight standout collections—handmade, design-forward—that have captured our attention.

Commune x Exquisite Surfaces

Their latest launch is the Abstrakt tile collection, based on paintings by Commune Design principal Steven Johanknecht and made by Exquisite Surfaces. You can find their whole range of tiles here.

Elisa Passino Studio

Above: We are big fans of Brooklyn artist Wayne Pate (we’ve featured on our site his office, his ceramics, as well as his collection of textiles inspired by his year living in Paris), so we were excited when Balineum tapped him to design painterly tiles. Go here to learn more about his tiles.

Block Shop x Fireclay

Above: Block Shop and Remodelista, we go way back—back to 2014, when sisters and cofounders sisters Hopie and Lily Stockman participated in a Remodelista Market. We love the textile design studio’s modern take on block printing, and now they’ve translated it to the world of tiles, partnering with Fireclay for a line of hand-painted designs. See  Variations on a Theme: A New Tile Collection from Fireclay x Block Shop (with Endless Possibilities).

Smink Studio

We recently discovered her incredible collection of tiles (she designs them; luxury floor and wall coverings company De Ferranti makes them), which range from whimsical to sophisticated. You can find them all on her website.

Martin Bergstrom x Marrakech Design
