SURFACES: Fabric-Texture Tile

Click photo for gallery• Walker Zanger, Sylmar, Calif., introduces the Knit collection of porcelain tiles to mirror the flexibility and texture of luxury textiles.

Each of the design fields—Quilt, Twill and Corduroy—expertly mimic their namesake fabric, recreating the look of quilted, woven and knitted material. The matte finish of the tile accentuates the detailed texture, but with the durability of porcelain for floor and wall applications.

The tile can be closely stacked like shingles, set in a herringbone weave, or even laid out in random geometric patterns like a crocheted afghan.

“The matte finish and modern colors of the Knit Collection enhance the look of luxury cloth, emulating the texture of fabrics to inspire modern, hand-made installation styles,” said Jared Becker, Walker Zanger vice president of design and marketing. “Homeowners and designers can create their own textile line for the home with the shapes and contemporary colors of Knit.”

The premiere porcelain collection is available in a variety of neutral colors, including cotton, felt and linen.
