COEM Maison Blanche Limestone-Effect Porcelain Tiles

Maison Blanche by COEM — the quiet authority of French limestone. Inspired by the pale Burgundy stone of eastern France, it has a fine, even grain flecked with fossil shell, in four tones that read as calm rather than decorative. Thirty-two digital graphics mean a large floor looks like stone, not like repeated tile.

The collection is built around indoor and outdoor continuity. Every colour runs in a 9mm Naturale for interiors and a matching 9mm Esterno with a grip surface for terraces and pool surrounds — same face, same tone — so a floor can carry straight through a set of doors. Above that sits GresX2, a 20mm paver in two large formats for dry-laid or pedestal installation.

Colours

White is the palest, a soft chalk that lifts north-facing rooms. Beige carries a warm sandy tone, the easiest to live with alongside oak and brass. Light Grey is a cool, understated stone grey with visible fossil flecking. Grey is the deepest and most architectural, striking across a large floor.

The Modulo

The Modulo is a four-size pattern supplied ready to lay — 40.8x61.4, 40.8x40.8, 20.3x40.8 and 20.3x20.3 packed together at 0.75m² per box, with a full module being two boxes at 1.5m². It gives the broken, random-course look of a laid stone floor without setting it out piece by piece, and is made in both Naturale and Esterno so the pattern can run outside as well.

Special trims

Two battiscopa heights are available: 7.5x60.4 in Naturale Rettificato to match the rectified sizes, and 6.8x61.4 in Naturale to match the 40.8x61.4 and the Modulo. Both are sold per piece.

See it before you buy

Limestone effect is a subtle material and the step between White, Beige, Light Grey and Grey is easier to judge in person than on screen, particularly under artificial light. Samples of all four colours are available to order, and the range is on display at our luxury interiors showroom in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, where you can compare the indoor and outdoor finishes side by side and see the Modulo laid. Our team can help with quantities, trims and adhesive specification. Call 01782 617517 or email sales@homeofclay.co.uk for a quotation or to arrange a visit.
