Shop the Look: Soft Stone Sanctuary

A tonal room in beige, cream and stone

Soft Stone Sanctuary keeps almost everything in one warm family. Travertine Soft Stone is a travertine look porcelain for floors and walls, and it also comes in a 3D version, so the same colour can be flat on the floor and textured on a feature wall. Tufa Veincut adds the long bands of vein cut travertine. Linen Natural White is a slim 50 x 150 mm subway tile that lifts the palette. Three Alhambra Flower mosaics bring in pattern: Botticino marble, travertine beige and a sage green marble.

Why tonal works

When tiles share a colour, the room reads through texture instead of contrast. Flat porcelain, a 3D surface, stone mosaics and a handmade style subway all catch the light differently, so the space feels rich without being busy. It is an easy look to live with in bathrooms, ensuites and laundries. See more beige tiles and travertine tiles.
