Design Inspiration Blog — Cement Tile

The installation of Tesselle Ipanema Cement Tile in Stacy’s kitchen is a brilliant study in high-contrast design. By pairing transitional cabinetry in a soft, smoky blue with a floor that features a rhythmic, mid-century inspired motif, the space achieves a sophisticated balance. The organic curves of the tile soften the clean, traditional lines of the kitchen, proving that bold patterns can feel perfectly at home in a timeless, functional setting.

Doug’s remodeled mid-century modern kitchen in Finleyville, Pennsylvania proves that great design honors the past while confidently embracing the present.  The star of the kitchen is the Tesselle Ipanema Costa Terrazzo Tile backsplash. The pattern brings rhythm, movement, and playful character to the space, creating a visual focal point that feels joyful and authentic to mid-century design.

Sana'a Cafe has become one of California’s most thoughtful and inspiring coffee destinations, blending rich cultural tradition with a modern design approach. With seven locations open and six more on the way, the brand continues to grow while honoring its origins and its mission to create warm, welcoming spaces.

A sunlit Southern California storefront becomes a standout moment of eye catching design thanks to Andalusia Night Cement Tiles by Tesselle. The repeating star motif creates a rhythmic surface that feels both historic and fresh, offering pattern, texture, and visual movement the moment you approach the entry. Paired with black trim, warm sunlight, and bright seasonal flowers, this installation shows how a strong tile design can completely transform a façade.
