LAYING WITH
COLLECTIONS

Our 17 colour collections enable the laying of surface and edge tiles in a continuous colour scheme. The colour collections are based on the colour palette of our monochrome floor tiles. Thus also the outer filling edge can be combined in matching colours and can frame the tile carpet harmoniously. Each collection contains five colours, which run like a theme through all the motifs. We have also subordinated our modern artist editions to this system.

Designing with
monochrome
floor tiles

The different effects of stack bond or diamond laying alone can have a decisive influence on your room. The checkerboard laying is probably the most widespread classical installation variant for the combination of several colours. However, there are far more design possibilities such as, for example, the half bond, the so-called « Roman laying » or the laying of whole shapes and patterns.

Restoration and
reproduction of
historical tiles

The only way to achieve a good restoration of existing tiles is to customize the tiles according to the original. The adjustment of the replica to the original is then in the hands of our specialists.
For the preparation of a non-binding quotation, we need exact details (dimensions and quantity) of the tiles to be reproduced.

Artist editions

In addition to our historical motifs, we also develop new designs and continue thinking about the object tile. Surveying a millennia long history of the tile full of different cultural influences inspires us to new motives and modern interpretations. The graphically abstract motifs of the editions, which are also part of our colour collections, play with ornamentation and format and can be easily combined with the historical motifs.

Formats

The structuring of wall tiles often represents an important design feature of historical layouts. Our full-size plain wall tiles are complemented with numerous size and form variants for sophisticated laying patterns. Flat liners and half tiles for example, as well as corners and inner corners serve to structure the surface elegantly.

The bullnosed variants of these wall tiles are also available in every colour and provide a cleaner, but still sophisticated finish if no architectural moulding is desired to border off the surface.

THE BRILLIANT TILE

INNOVATION IN COLOUR AND FUNCTION

Our wealth of experience gained from years of work and production of traditional tiles in combination with numerous ceramic experiments result in GOLEM’s brilliant tile.
With the brilliant tile, GOLEM is breaking new ground in technical and design terms; its visual appeal lies above all in its particularly lively play of colours. From a technical point of view, it combines the colour intensity and depth of our wall tile glazes with the resistance of stoneware and therefore guarantees frost resistance and durability over generations.

Reduction firings

In our reduction firings, the glaze is applied to the blank with a ladle. This manual glaze method creates a thicker, particularly vibrant surface with a variety of nuances. After glazing, the tiles are fired twice and oxygen is extracted from the combustion chamber. Through this process we give chance a big space. This leads to particularly strong colours and a unique play of colours. Each tile is unique.

Restoration and
reproduction of
historical tiles

Although our standard wall tiles resemble the historical models, they differ from the originals in size, colour or brightness. In the past there was no continuous standardization and for understandable reasons we cannot today use all ingredients of the glazes of the 19th century.

The way to a good restoration of existing tiles can therefore only lead to a special production of the tiles after presentation of the originals. The adaptation of the replica to the original is then in the hands of our specialists.
