Modern Heritage Collection

Contemporary Classics

Deep navy glazes, crisp geometry and solid field tiles: Portuguese tradition distilled for contemporary interiors.

Modern Heritage

The collection story

Tradition, Refined

Modern Heritage takes the discipline of Portuguese pattern-making and pares it back to its essentials: strong geometry, confident colour and precise, even finishes. Every tile is produced by machine from Claudio Bassani’s designs, so lines stay sharp and colour stays consistent across the wall.

Mix the patterned designs with our solid field tiles to create clean, architectural compositions for kitchens, bathrooms and boutique hospitality spaces.
