Ivory tiles call to mind all the emotions and meanings connected to the rare and valuable material from which the colour takes its name. Sometimes characterised by mother-of-pearl shades, a floor covered with ivory tiles illuminates the space in a distinguished and refined way with warmer and more comfortable tones than those of a simple white floor. It is a colour that lends itself to any combination and goes very well with a wide variety of furnishing styles.

Ivory tiles: making the right choice
Ivory stoneware is an ideal solution for floor and wall coverings, giving them a graceful hue. The result is simply elegant and harmonious. So whether combined with a minimalist, industrial, Scandinavian or rustic decor, ivory tiles are able to create an elegant and cosy atmosphere. What’s more, ivory-coloured tiles combine the delicacy of the light colour with the technical characteristics of porcelain stoneware. Porcelain stoneware offers a number of advantages, including a non-slip surface and water resistance, making it the ideal choice for embellishing your indoor and outdoor spaces.
What are the aesthetic effects of ivory-coloured tiles?
The Ivory Sandstone reproduces numerous aesthetic effects, inspired in particular by natural materials, to meet all requirements in terms of decorative style. What’s more, so much attention is paid to detail during the production process that even the smallest details are replicated on ivory tiles to create a realistic product.
First of all, the ivory tile is available in the stone effect, whose aesthetic characteristics it reproduces right down to the roughness and veining of the material. In this way, even the activity of time that forms the charm of natural stone is replicated. In this case, the warmth of ivory combines with the elegance of stone to transform your spaces into sober, relaxing havens of peace.
Then, ivory tiles can be combined with a concrete effect for a guaranteed modern result. Concrete-effect tiles are a wise choice, especially for studio or loft-style decorations, although they also enhance other, more traditional styles. Ivory-coloured tiles bring a slight comforting warmth to the look of concrete, and this option can bring brightness to your environments.
Ivory stoneware is also inspired by natural wood, the material that has won over many of us. The replication is so realistic that there is no visual difference between wood effect tiles and natural parquet, even in terms of how it feels to the touch. This combination embodies pure warmth and luminosity and warms up the atmosphere in no time at all.
Finally, cement tiles are another source of inspiration for ivory tiles. Novoceram reinvents them in a contemporary way, and the ivory hue gives them a supreme elegance. Ivory tiles can also be given a designer effect that gives a modern, sober tone to the room in which they are laid.
Ivory tiles for delicate decoration
Ivory stoneware has obvious soothing properties, thanks in particular to its delicate, refined shades. Although it is less brilliant than white, ivory has the ability to reflect natural light while enhancing the spaces it decorates. This characteristic is a real point of strength given that ivory tiles match different decorating styles and give them a unique character.
Ivory tiles can be used to soften interior and exterior spaces, but they are also considered a good solution in order to contrast with more straightforward shades. Combined with black or grey, this colour helps to create a light, modern environment. On the other hand, combining ivory with taupe or light colours such as white guarantees an elegant and refined ambience where sophistication reigns.
Ivory-coloured tiles also work wonderfully with natural materials such as wood to give a rather Nordic and soothing result. Metallic materials such as copper, for example, offer a contemporary, minimalist interior that is enhanced by the luminous nature of ivory. In this way, Ivory Sandstone allows for infinite colour combinations that blend in with every style and adapt to all aesthetic requirements.
It’s also possible to opt for ivory tiles whose surface is enriched by the presence of patterns, sometimes geometric, sometimes classical. This option adds dynamism to your spaces and to your decor. These patterns liven up and brighten up your decor, while giving it a unique identity. All the patterns go well with every type of decor, thanks in particular to their luminous ivory nature.
In general, ivory-coloured tiles reveal an identity imbued with purity and delicacy, giving rise to environments that encourage rest and serenity. The natural elegance of grès ivoire therefore blends beautifully into modern or even more classic settings. In both cases, it’s its luminosity that plays an important part in the space and helps to harmonise them.
