Country Floors holds a unique place in the modern history of interior design in the United States. A 55-year-old heritage brand, Country Floors is widely considered to have been responsible for the resurgence of America’s interest in hand crafted tile. In the mid-twentieth century, after decades of popular demand for mass-produced ceramic tile had all but vanished the category, design professionals and aficionados alike began clamoring for the artistry, authenticity, timelessness and beauty of the handmade treasures they were discovering at Country Floors. The brand became known for offering the ultra-rich textures and artful, hand-painted glazes of craft tile from around the globe. Country Floors also developed an unparalleled expertise in vetting these products carefully and working hand-in-glove with makers to ensure the quality and consistency required for dependability and longevity in high-end residential and luxury commercial installations. So influential was its design authority that a cottage industry of American artisan tile emerged and thrived in the late 20th century in large part due to demand created by Country Floors, its famously inviting jewel-box showrooms and shelter titles’ publication of benchmark projects by top designers using Country Floors tile. Today, in addition to their own international production and exclusive creative partnerships with leading and emerging global makers, Country Floors also designs and manufactures tile and mosaic in America. Materials include ceramic, porcelain, stone, glass, cement and terra cotta. A pairing of time-honored artisanal techniques from antiquity with state-of-the-art tile technologies yields a stunning selection of classic and modern looks. From the highest level of fine décor to value-engineered architectural design projects, Country Floors offers both the materials and thoughtful specification support that provide amazing results.
