What kind of tile is Metro Gris Blend Interlocking?

We stock Metro Gris Blend Interlocking as porcelain glass in a interlocking shape. It reads gris blend. Bytle Bianco Herringbone 6mm and Ombre Grigia Glass Tile sit in the same style family if you want to compare. Fired denser than ordinary ceramic, porcelain has near-zero water absorption, which is why it also goes on floors and wet walls.

Sizes and finishes

How it is actually sold — measured off the spec sheet, not rounded.

Sizes

Metro Gris Blend Interlocking is made in 2 sizes. Size is the decision people skip and then notice every day: it sets how much grout line ends up in the field, and a larger module on the same wall reads calmer than a small one.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Metro Gris Blend Interlocking itself, not from its name.

Read off its own swatch, Metro Gris Blend Interlocking measures #777472: mid, essentially neutral. We match that to Slate Blue and build the pairings from there. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.

Cabinets

Warm White / Ivory — A slate-blue island in a warm-white kitchen is the safest color move in the book — enough character to anchor the room, never enough to scare a future buyer.. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes classic

Flooring

Ash Blond Wood — Pale straw-blond ash underfoot takes the chill off slate-blue cabinetry, landing the room Scandinavian-coastal instead of cold.. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid
