By: Nemo Tile + Stone
The latest arrivals at Nemo Tile + Stone highlight timeless style with modern performance. Torcello, Ardoise, and Rialto. Each brings a distinct design language while sharing the common thread of timeless inspiration paired with modern functionality. From Italian terrazzo reimagined in Torcello, to the refined slate look of Ardoise, to the vibrant versatility of Rialto, these introductions showcase elevated craftsmanship, durable performance, and versatile applications for both residential and commercial environments.
Torcello: The Modern Terrazzo Classic
Torcello celebrates terrazzo’s rich Italian heritage with a contemporary edge. Crafted in Italy, each 24x24 tile is finished with a soft brushed surface that enhances the beauty of marble fragments while offering a natural, matte feel.
Its six neutral colorways from Carrara to Bardiglio create a palette that works seamlessly across design styles, whether paired with warm woods, bold accents, or minimalist interiors. Beyond floors and walls, Torcello lends itself beautifully to statement furniture applications, making it a versatile choice for both residential and commercial spaces.

Ardoise: Slate, Elevated in Porcelain

With formats ranging from architectural slabs to refined smaller pieces, the collection adapts effortlessly from expansive hospitality projects to intimate residential spaces.
Engineered for high performance, Ardoise is offered in two finishes: Natural R10 for interiors and R11 slip-resistant for exteriors and high-traffic zones. Its robust 20mm pavers extend the same sleek aesthetic outdoors, making continuous indoor-outdoor design possible.

Rialto reinvents terrazzo for the modern era, pairing artistry with practicality. Available in eight curated hues, the collection balances subtle neutrals (Ivory, Light, Sand, Grey) with playful bolder tones (Moon, Sage, Sunset, Night). Its surface technology uses grooving and glazing to mimic the dimensional look of authentic terrazzo chips, offering unmatched realism in porcelain.
