Brushstone is a floor with high visual interest, suggesting the subtle glow of an aobe wall, smoothed and hand-rubbed with beeswax.

Designed in Italy and crafted in the USA, Brushstone is a collection of glazed porcelain tile distinguished by surface and texture variations in a palette that's richer and earthier, in keeping with today's more intense neutrals. The tile surface has a slight raised-relief feel and a soft, fine, misty look with no obvious grain. Spatter glazing gives the effect of flecks of light over soothing sweeps of color.

Designed in Italy and made in the USA, Lunar is a line offered only by Shaw. It's a ceramic tile collection of dramatic design, inspired by images of the moon's surface. A multitude of glazing processes gives immense depth of texture and color, strong veining, and realistic effect. Randomness is ensured by extremely advanced technology and numerous manufacturing steps?for a look that's very natural.

Matrix is a stunning porcelain tile unique to Shaw?the quintessential transitional product. It's organic, soft, and vintage; but at the same time, it's edgy and modern. It mixes two hot looks?stained concrete and textured fabric?in a design that juxtaposes the old and the new.

The surface resembles the texture of paint on canvas?like ink washed over finely woven linen. It's an artistic look, suggesting a subtle landscape with cloudlike shapes hovering over a misty, cross-hatched horizon. But it's also a look that's modern, grid-like, and ambiguous. Tiles have a new rectangular shape, a quality that gives Matrix an upper-end, contemporary edge.
