Inga Sempé Designs a Line of Graphic Tiles for Mutina

French designer Inga Sempé partnered with Italian tile manufacturer Mutina for a new collection of graphic tiles, entitled Tratti. The patterns have an almost hand drawn or hand painted feel that work seamlessly with each other, letting you be the designer.

The collection includes three base color tiles – white, beige, and grey (above right) – and eight single patterned tiles (above left) that let you mix and match anyway you like. Besides the different patterns, they’re also available in three different mixes that are composed of different patterns in white, grey, and dark grey.

Pattern "Triple" and base color "Bianco"

Each 4″ x 4″ (10cm x 10cm) porcelain tile is digitally printed with a glaze to get the muted designs. The durable tiles work on the floor or walls and can be installed inside or outside.
