A good designer, we were taught at ID school, pays careful attention to the transitions where two surfaces intersect. So it’s fitting that this DTILE<\/a> system was invented by a trio of industrial designers: Arnout Visser, Erik Jan Kwakkel and Peter van der Jagt, who all hail from the Netherlands.<\/p>\n

Rather than merely producing flat tiles, the DTILE system also includes curved, corner, edge and transition pieces that allow the tiled surface to follow a three-dimensional shape.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Furthermore there are utility tiles and allow for shelves, hooks, vents, electrical outlets, drawers and the like.<\/p>\n

Together these allow for designs that would be difficult to impossible to execute with ordinary tiles:<\/p>\n

The trio first conceived of the concept in the ’90s, launched their brand in 2010 (with in-house manufacturing), and today they sell in over 50 countries. <\/p>\n
