Tactile, Tonal & Natural Tiles & Engineered Flooring Surfaces for Biophilic Interiors
Reconnect with Nature Through Biophilic Design
As we look toward 2026, Colour Hive and Mix predict interiors to embrace organic tones, natural textures, and tactile surfaces. Rooted in nature’s authentic character, this trend celebrates bringing the depth and rhythm of nature indoors, from warm, earthy hues to subtle, glossy highlights.
Biophilic design sits at the heart of this approach. Even indoors, our connection to nature matters. With our minds and bodies attuned to textures, tones, and rhythms, we naturally bring these elements into living and working spaces. Natural materials not only look beautiful, but they also reduce stress, uplift mood, and support focus.
