MIX & MATCH CERAMIC: Created from the mash-up phenomenon
(re-mix of two previous works to create a third). In this case ceramic
tiles are mixed with diversity: materials, textures, colors, formats, and
graphic motifs. The object in these projects is to find unique solutions
in this coming together of different combinations which before could
have never been possible. The versatility of mix and match tiles makes
it possible to be used in a living room floor or a kitchen wall, combining
them with other materials to give the space a personal touch.

GRADIENTS: The quality and variety of the color palette in ceramic
tiles allows for the use of this installation style which goes from a
darker to lighter shade or vice versa. The result is unique and personal
since darker colors can be used to add energy or warmth to a room.
To make the design more complex and interesting installers can play
with Zigzag patterns like those seen below from Equipe Ceramicas.
