Beneath the Surface

A History of Quality

Created in collaboration with LA-based design firm Commune, the decorative cement tiles in the Circle Drop collection are handmade in Vietnam using the same artisanal techniques that have been passed down for centuries. Colors are mixed using cement, stone powder and pigment and then hand-poured into patterned molds affixed to a tile base. The mold is then removed, and a mixture of cement and sand is added to strengthen the bond between layers before the tile is hydraulically pressed. The pressed tiles are then racked and, lastly, cured underwater for 24 hours before finishing. This labor-intensive, multistep process produces unique tiles with unparalleled durability, character and beauty, while honoring a long, rich history of traditional craftsmanship.

Why do we love it?

The boldly modern pattern and unique customizability.

How does it look?

White Circle has modern appeal, with a striking, simple white circle pattern on a black background. Due to the handmade nature of this product, variations in tone and shading are to be expected from batch to batch.

How does it wear?

Moderate to heavy wear can be expected over time, depending on usage and traffic. A rich patina will develop with use over time. This is expected and considered to be a part of the beauty of this natural material.
