Surface Solutions For Professional Property Designers

With a number of design shows scheduled in May, including Grand Designs Live and Clerkenwell Design Week, there’s a heightened interest in interior design and property development.

As such, and with some remarkable new collections added to the Minoli portfolio this year, we thought we’d focus on how the latest porcelain tile ranges offer complete systems of surface solutions for professional designers, architects and developers.

Whether for small-scale room refurbishments or complete property renovations, new build developments or commercial, workplace, retail and hospitality projects, the sheer variety of designs, colours, sizes, finishes and formats available allow for the most inventive and technical design schemes to be realised.

Including floor and wall tiles with more standard dimensions, large formats and super-sized slabs, with matt, polished, silk, grip or hammered finishes depending on the design, plus décor pieces and outdoor porcelain pavers, the variety of potential applications is near endless.

Take for instance Marvel Epic, our headline launch collection for 2026, with a rich and radiant range of designs, this series enables coherent and contemporary environments that are perfectly integrated between floors, walls and furnishings.

Marvel Epic revolutionises the concept of porcelain stoneware surfaces, not just delivering authentic marble-effect finishes, but creating epic scenes that transform spaces into visual experiences. The compositional freedom and versatile looks offered by the collection make Marvel Epic the ideal choice for projects that aim to impress.

This collection features both neutral, natural designs, such as Taj Mahal White and Noisette, Onyx Ivory and Alpin, as well as deeper, dynamic colours, including Natural Roots, Calacatta Viola and the polychromatic palette of Zephyr.

In sizes ranging from 60/120, 120/120, 120/278 and 160/320, all with precisely rectified edges, the colours come to life at grand scale. Each colourway within Epic has been purposefully designed and produced with finishes that most enhance the realism of their appearance – be they matt, silk, polished or hammered, according to the colourway chosen.

Another new launch which has caught the eye of our professional design clients is the effortlessly elegant Nyra Series – a stone-effect collection designed to give shape to the idea of promoting well-being through architecturally designed spaces.

The surface of Nyra is not an imitation of natural materials, but an original surface developed with a biophilic approach and design sensitivity. The aesthetics are sophisticated, with textures, veins and decorative details which present a stone-effect that does not exist in nature and has been designed for authentic and multisensory spaces.

Nyra offers a complete system of surface solutions with which to realise the most imaginative and innovative designs, with standard sized and large format floor and wall tiles, super-size slabs, as well as multiple outdoor porcelain pavers.

These include variants in 30/60, 60/60, 80/80, 60/120, 75/150 and 120/278 slabs, depending on the colour and specification chosen.

Nyra designs range from the light and bright Star, Hay and Sunlight colourways, mid-toned Mist, Ambrosia and Meteor, plus the darker, dramatic shades of Charcoal.

These are all produced in fine, Italian porcelain, with precise rectified edges for ease of exact installation and there are also colour coordinated plain wall and décor tiles in ceramic of 40/80 dimensions, with which to create feature areas with tactile textures.

With such broad ranges offering countless options for a wide variety of settings, these series lend themselves to a more free-form decorative direction, with designers being less constrained as tile styles become more varied and imaginative.

What’s more, selected sizes of both Epic and Nyra are held in plentiful UK stock at our centrally located Warehouse and Distribution Centre in Oxford, assuring our clients of a rapid, on-call supply line to maintain build and fit-out schedules.
