Made up of a blend of white Carrara and white Thassos marble, our Kinetic fog circles marble tiles have a spellbinding sense of movement. Swirling shades of gray and white give it a neutral quality, making it compatible with many design styles and palettes—even bold ones. The organic “bubbles” are applied to 12-by-12-inch, mesh-backed sheets designed for quick and simple installation. Even with its atomic-age, midcentury vibe, Kinetic is a style revival that’s surprisingly versatile. By offering the collection in marble and marble blends, we’ve made it more relevant and sophisticated. Classic marbles, including white Thassos and Carrara, take on a contemporary feel when presented in unique circle and oval patterns. The collection is suitable for the kitchen, bath, shower, and outdoors. The Kinetic collection is inspired by an aesthetic from the mid-20th century—a variation on the mid-mod theme called atomic age design. In the 1950s and ‘60s, the worlds of architecture and interiors—including tile and wallcoverings—were influenced by our fascination with space exploration. Today, our knowledge of the universe has grown—and with it, our delight in futuristic patterns like Kinetic.
I have not had these installed yet, but my handyman will ultimately get around to it. Was so sick of hexagons for bathroom tile and this is a nice change. The circles are of different sizes so it's easy to look at, you are not tempted to try to count them! An asset is that they come in a range if grays and browns/beiges. I think they call the beiges and browns "amber", which isn't really my perception of amber. But the photos are accurate so just look at them and order a sample piece to be sure. Take care on grout color. I saw a photo of these installed and it had a light colored grout that approximated the cream color. Well, to the eyes, the cream colored and lighter circles "disappeared" and it gave the impression of slate gray circles on a white field! I am going to use an ivory color that does not match with any of the shades so that I can showcase all the color shades. I originally discovered these in an upscale brick and mortar tile store for $47/square foot. Other online stores gave me prices like $42, $34, and this was the clear winner at $25.. Libby.
