Concrete Style: Opus 2.0 from Nemo Tile + Stone

New York-based surface materials company Nemo Tile + Stone has launched its newest porcelain tile collection, Opus 2.0. Taking design and style cues from the first Opus collection, Opus 2.0 is a floor and wall line designed to resemble concrete. The collection adds eight new colorways and two additional textured style offerings. 

Reflecting the imperfect and raw characteristics of concrete, such as cracks, patinas, scratches and weather, Opus 2.0 has a natural, organic appeal for indoor and outdoor spaces. The line is available in five square and rectangular tiles: 12 inches by 24 inches, 24 inches by 24 inches, 24 inches by 48 inches, 36 inches by 36 inches and 48 inches by 48 inches. The collection is available in eight shades of warm and cool grays: ash, carbon, clay, flint, graphite, gravel, salt and sand. Included in the collection are additional tile formats of a 2-inch-by-2-inch mosaic, pavers and decorative wall tiles to support both floor and vertical application needs. 

The textured Fault style features a linear three-dimensional surface available in 24-inch-by-48-inch tiles in all eight colorways. Offering visual and tactile texture, Fault adds depth and structure to wall applications, applied vertically or horizontally. 

The Mix pattern style is a digitally printed tile with intense visual movement. The style is available in 24-inch-by-48-inch tiles and comes in either a warm or cool hue combination.

“Opus 2.0 is a refined take on concrete in porcelain as it celebrates the imperfections that we see that naturally happens with concrete. We see the scratches and the patina that are apparent in concrete over time,” said Katie Michael-Battaglia, design director at Nemo Tile + Stone. “The Opus 2.0 collection can fit with many project spaces and types due to the neutrality of the material, but also with the array of tones and sizes available.”
