Decorative Metal Tiles by Karim Rashid from Alloy Design

There is one designer who never fails to surprise with his slightly off-beat, significantly on-trend creations, and Karim Rashid has done it again with these modern decorative metal tiles made in collaboration with Australian company Alloy Design. The cool collection comes in eight decorative designs, each a variation of recurring cells. In repetition, these cell tiles merge into a mesmerizing 3D pattern on your walls; a look that’s high-tech and futuristic, and “in motion” as light plays off the polished metal finish. Available in steel, copper, brass, titanium and raw steel (and fittingly, by names like Flux, Infinit, Karma, Kismet, Ninja, Kink and Ubiquity) these designer tiles are unlike anything you’ve ever seen. Ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications, these metal tiles will modernize, and hypnotize! For more information visit Alloy Design.
