Top picks for timeless design: Terracotta
Selecting materials and finishes that will be loved for decades is one of the best ways to reduce waste when it comes to renovating, designing, and creating your dream home. We’ve brought you travertine, marble, white hex tiles, and white metros, but today it’s all about one of 2023’s favourite finishes - terracotta.
Proof that you can be both trendy and timeless, terracotta can do it all. It’s back in vogue and it’s always going to look good: terracotta has a unique ability to blend, harmonise, decorate, and make a statement all at once, while suiting any manner of interior styles and design tastes.
The warm, earthy, orange tones are an iconic element in Mediterranean architecture, but terracotta is equally at home in Desert Modern design, a vintage 70s or boho aesthetic, winding, organic cave homes, or amongst the contrasting lines of Mid-Century modern spaces.
With a hand-made, rustic texture, terracotta exudes a feeling, not a time period, allowing you to put your mark and personality alongside it without worrying about changing tastes. Its uniquely weathered soul is present across the terracotta tonal spectrum, from sweet peach to burnt orange, and sandy pinks to Uluru reds, each offering a little something different, suiting the trends but never growing old.
