In a recent visit with Riad Tile, one of Thiel & Team’s senior designers, Lindsay, highlighted a key trend in interior design: “Texture is in!” She emphasized the growing desire to incorporate earthy tones, natural materials, and textures into spaces, with colors like sage green and terracotta now acting as neutrals. This trend aligns perfectly with Riad Tile’s diverse offerings of Moroccan-style ceramic tiles, which can bring these elements to life in hospitality and multifamily amenity spaces. Let’s explore how.
1. Creating a Tactile and Grounding Lobby Experience
Hotel lobbies and other hospitality entrance ways can benefit from the textural richness of tile patterns. Imagine a feature wall showcasing a blend of zellige tiles in varying shades of terracotta and ochre, creating a visually captivating and tactile experience for guests. The interplay of light and shadow on the textured surface adds depth and dimension to the space, fostering a warm, welcoming and grounding atmosphere.
2. Enhancing Multi-Family Amenity Spaces with Natural Materials
Natural materials like wood and stone are often incorporated into amenity spaces to create a sense of warmth and connection to the outdoors. Riad Tile’s ceramic tiles can complement these materials beautifully. Consider a resident lounge with a fireplace surround featuring ceramic tiles in a wood-grain pattern, adding a touch of rustic charm. In an outdoor patio area, ceramic tiles in earthy tones can create a seamless transition between the interior and exterior spaces.
3. Designing Relaxing Health & Wellness Experiences with Textured Tiles
Spas are designed to promote relaxation and well-being, and textured tiles can contribute to this atmosphere. Imagine a spa’s hydrotherapy room featuring a mosaic of Moroccan tiles in calming shades of blue and green, with varying textures creating a sense of depth and movement. The tactile experience of these tiles underfoot can further enhance the relaxation and rejuvenation process.
Thiel & Team’s Design Approach
Thiel & Team’s design philosophy emphasizes creating amenity spaces that resonate with each client and enhance the overall experience. Specialized wall coverings can infuse spaces with the earthy tones, natural materials, and textures that are so sought-after in today’s design trends. Whether it’s a hotel lobby, a multifamily lounge, or a tranquil spa, Thiel & Team can leverage the beauty and versatility of these tiles to create amenity spaces that are both inviting and on-trend.
