Collection 03 · Solid

The Pestle

Meticulously blended solid colors with a smooth matte finish: the disciplined choice for design-forward developments.

The Story

Quiet, uniform, architectural.

The Pestle is a tribute to the craft of color itself. Each solid shade is the result of meticulous blending and grinding, in the tradition of artists who made their own pigment. The result is consistent coloration and a calm, architectural surface that lets the rest of the room speak.

Underneath the restraint is the same engineered system: resistant to scratches, spills, and wear, with the durability and ease of care that high-density communities demand. The refined surface complements a wide range of architectural palettes while keeping maintenance demand low for staff.

Questions

The Pestle, answered.

Is a solid-color floor less durable than the textured collections?

No. Every collection is the same engineered FlowStone system underneath. The Pestle simply finishes it in a smooth matte, uniform color.

How uniform is the color really?

Consistent coloration is the collection's defining trait, and blending is controlled from batch to batch. As with any hand-finished surface, we still recommend a job site sample panel so the approved color is judged in your light.

Which spaces suit The Pestle best?

Units, corridors, and back-of-house spaces where a calm, consistent surface is wanted, and any design scheme where the floor should support the palette rather than lead it.
