Alison Rose Creates Textural Tiles With Delicate Folds

2023 Best of Year Winner for Stone Wallcovering Designer Collection

The latest stone tile from interior designer Alison Rose is greater than the sum of its parts. The square-format Duo is composed of two curvilinear ribbed or etched “puzzle pieces.” Finely striated Duo Texture, which comes in Nero or Calacatta Gold, nestles up to its complement, thickly rippled Duo Dimensional, available in Matcha Verde, Lilac, or Vanilla Onyx. “The design started as playful explorations of folding paper and velum and being fascinated by how the folds slowly released overnight,” Rose says. “Some had been scored, some simply pressed, some rolled, but all had naturally relaxed, showcasing a play of light and shadow.” Those ephemeral investigations are now realized in magnificent natural stone, and the elegant result won best Stone Wallcovering: Designer Collection. artistictile.com
