4 Jul 2022  •  Specification  •  By Collin Anderson

From bathroom walls to flooring for living spaces, tiling provides a durable, easy-to-maintain finish solution with a seemingly infinite range of colors, finishes, shapes and sizes. Architects and designers specify tiling for both wet and dry environments, indoors and outdoors. Though a hard finish, tiling can also be produced in warm colors and with a variety of textures to achieve a variety of design intents. These are ten of our most popular tile products specified in the past year.
