Subway & Designer Pattern Tiles

The industrial-era classic reworked in proportion, glaze and edge — alongside pattern-led ceramic across traditions and Italian third-fire decorative work, returned to the kiln a third time for detail no print can copy.

Beyond the standard subway

Subway tile earns its place through proportion and glaze, not novelty. We carry versions with hand-finished edges, deep glossy and matt glazes, and formats from slim kit-kat strips to elongated bricks — so a kitchen splashback or bathroom wall reads considered rather than default.

Pattern with intent

Geometric repeats, hand-painted motifs and contemporary graphics — pattern-led ceramic across traditions. A patterned floor can do the work of a rug; a patterned wall can carry a whole room. We help you scale pattern correctly to room size, the discipline most projects miss.

Third fire: the Italian detour

Third-fire (terzo fuoco) ceramic goes back into the kiln a third time to take on metallic lustres, reliefs and decorative detail. Slow, deliberate, and unmistakable in person — we use it as jewellery for a room: borders, insets, single feature runs.

Price guidance

Subway and pattern collections span a wide range, starting above ₹150 per square foot; third-fire decorative pieces are quoted per piece or per run. Exact pricing follows a consultation at the Thiruvananthapuram showroom.

Frequently asked questions

Which tiles are best for a kitchen splashback?

Glazed subway or pattern tile both work well — glaze quality matters more than format. We match glaze, grout and edge trim to your counters and cabinetry at consultation.

Do you stock imported designer wall tiles?

Yes — imported collections are part of the studio's curation, alongside the best Indian manufacturers, with over 100 makers on call.

Can patterns be customised?

Yes. Pattern, colourway and format can be customised — the studio's foundation is designing surfaces no catalogue carries.
