Mid-Century Chic Tile Collections

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Alex Proba Presents the Aurora Collection of Tiles

— March 20, 2024 — Art & Design
Alex Proba works together with Concrete Collaborative on the Aurora collection, which is a special tile range that is made with a unique inspiration. The duo turns their attention to classic cured meat and cheese sandwiches as the visual influence. As a result, the capsule is defined by a palette of rich burgundy and pink tones for a chic feel.

Proba explores a new angle of creativity that is rooted in her use of color. She notes “There’s not many opportunities for me to explore less color, just because people expect me to always do color. I love color, my house and everything is full of color, so it’ll never be colorless in my world. But there’s a lot of passion I have in exploring a muted palette.”
