When it comes to metals, designers are shunning perfectly polished surfaces in favor of colorful and textured patinas. The style translates into other non-metal surfaces as well, where the look of aged and corroded metals is being carefully recreated for wallpapers and tiles.

Decotone Surfaces’ Stone Oxide tile is part of the brand’s decorative Metallic Laminate series which translates rusted and oxidized patterns onto durable flooring.

Nemo Tile re-imagines the porcelain tile with their Oxy line, which mimics scratched and oxidized metals.

Printed on metallic foil with layers of translucent inks, which distress and crackle glaze the surface, the Lustre Tile Wallpaper by Zoffany has a warm, oxidized copper patina with accents of teal.

Architectural Ceramics’ Native Rock Collection portrays the patina of oxidizing metal on porcelain floor tiles.

This collection of Oxidized Steel speciality wallcoverings by Tri-Kes creates a 3-dimensional effect.
