Embracing natural materials might be one of the big interior trends for AW22, but the experts at tile retailer Porcelain Superstore believe demand for semi-precious stones and minerals will shape bathroom design this winter.

Abbas Youssefi, who founded independent tile retailer Porcelain Superstore alongside his brothers Ben and Sam, believes there will be a huge appetite for opulent, onyx effect tiles as we head into the colder months.

Abbas Youssefi, Director of Porcelain Superstore, said: “Marble and marble-effect tiles have long been a staple in bathrooms, but this Autumn I think we’ll see homeowners move beyond marble into more jewel-like realms.

“Tiles with a semi-precious edge and quartz-like appearance will inject opulence and class, giving homes a really luxurious finish.”

Porcelain Superstore’s new Jewel Onyx range encapsulates the trend. Available in five colours, the tiles are crafted from exquisite Italian porcelain and look like they have been sliced from slabs of semi-precious rocks.

Abbas said: “When times are hard, we often find homeowners are more likely to invest in bold décor to boost positivity in the home. These are most definitely the tiles for the job.”
