Rō

Tranquility and subtlety are aspirational qualities of the Scandinavian way of living. Our Scandi-meets-Japan earthen porcelain line, Rō, embodies organic modernism imbued with the spirit of calm. Masterfully crafted in Japan with a discerning eye and thoughtful restraint, every tile reveals formal perfection: no more, no less.

Six shapes bathed in ten nuanced colorways articulate quiet luxury inspired by nature’s highest order—light. There is nothing more minimalist than stillness, and Rō balances earthen simplicity with a uniquely modern spirit.

Special Notes

IMPORTANT: Make sure the installer understands the blending requirements given the variation in color and shade of Ro. All tiles must be unpacked, inspected and BLENDED prior to installation.

• Ro is handcrafted tile with unique glazes that pool and break over the edge of the tile. Variation in shade, color and texture are inherent characteristics of these tiles.

• As such, it is very important to blend the tiles from ALL boxes once they arrive and place them in the installation area to ensure the layout is acceptable before installing. Do not install without blending and reviewing the tiles prior to installation.

• Ro is a non-rectified handcrafted product with variation in shape and size. Its authentic characteristics should be considered when planning an installation. An experienced installer should plan for variation in grout lines with all patterns, but especially with straight set patterns to achieve the desired aesthetic.

Fusion mesh sheets use water-soluble glue; use waterproof masking tape when cutting. Mesh-backed Fusion is not recommended for submerged (pool) applications. An overage of 15-20% is recommended.
