About our tiles
Information on Blēo's tiles, their materials, production, craftsmanship and performance
What defines Blēo's approach to tiles?
Blēo’s tile collections bring together contemporary design, material knowledge and craftsmanship. We work with designers and specialist workshops across different regions, exploring the possibilities of clay, ceramic, terracotta and natural stone through colour, form and surface. Our approach is guided by an appreciation for versatility, quality and the knowledge developed through years of working with these materials. Each collection reflects the particular characteristics of its material, the designer’s perspective and the expertise of the workshop producing it. Together, the collections offer a broad range of colours, formats and finishes for different architectural settings.
Where are Blēo’s tiles produced?
Blēo’s tiles are produced in collaboration with specialist workshops in Italy, Spain and Morocco. Each workshop brings its own expertise, materials and production traditions, from hand-cut Moroccan zellige to glazed ceramics and hand-formed Italian terracotta. We select our production partners for their knowledge of the material, technical experience and commitment to quality. We prioritise locally sourced clay and established regional production methods. We are continuously exploring new materials and manufacturing techniques, including potential collaborations with workshops in Japan, Portugal and France.
How does Blēo select its tile manufacturers?
We work with manufacturers who have extensive experience with their materials and production processes. Our selection is based on craftsmanship, technical knowledge, consistency and the ability to develop colours, surfaces and formats to a high standard. Particular attention is given to the quality of the raw materials, glazing, firing and finishing processes, as well as the suitability of each product for its intended application. We value long-term relationships with workshops where traditional knowledge and contemporary production requirements can inform one another.
