Osmose - Wall and floor tiles in hexagonal format

Novoceram, French ceramic producer since 1863, unveils a collection of tiles in decorated porcelain stoneware for interior floors and walls in hexagonal format.

Osmose is a collection of tiles in decorated porcelain stonewaree that Novoceram, French ceramic producer since 1863, has designed for interior and exterior floors and walls.

Osmose was created from the desire to show, in all its beauty, the rainbow of colours that characterises Novoceram’s Ojala series. The wealth of shades and the variety in the design is intended to give a new breath to a classic format of the ceramic industry, the hexagon. The result is a decorative product ideal for both floor and wall coverings, providing colour and personality to the environment in which it is laid.

Osmose is available in four versions. Geom Clair, with a sunny appearance and warm, vibrant colours set in geometric shapes that give dynamism to the product. In the Geom Foncé version, the same geometric shapes take on a modern character through a combination with darker, cooler colours. Geom Noir & Blanc changes again, loses its colour armour and reveals its rigorous structure of lines, polygons and sections emphasised by a particularly contemporary greyscale colour choice that finds its warm heart in the ochre details. Finally, Osmose mutates and unfolds into something completely different: an explosion of organic shapes and bright colours that give life to Floral. In this latest version, four more colours are added to complement the already vast range of previous versions.

Three solid colours derived from the Ojala colours are also available: Osmose Ocre, Osmose Sable and Osmose Cendre.

Osmose is only available in the hexagonal 25×21.6 format with a thickness of 9 mm. The four articles can be used alone, combined with the three proposed plain colours, but also with stone, marble and wood effect tiles. These make Osmose a versatile product, suitable for floors, kitchen backsplashes, boiserie and showers.
