Chroma: bringing colour into your home
At Marlborough Tiles, we understand that choosing the right colour can completely transform a space, creating an atmosphere that feels uniquely yours. That’s why the Chroma collection was designed not only to celebrate the beauty of colour but to offer practical ways to incorporate it into your home. With 18 exquisite shades, each lovingly handcrafted in our Marlborough factory, the Chroma collection invites you to explore the endless possibilities of colour in your living spaces.
How to use Chroma tiles in your home
The Kitchen: A hub of energy
The kitchen is often the heart of the home, and bold colours like Tuscan Red can make a statement while adding warmth and vibrancy.
Consider using Tuscan Red tiles for a kitchen island or as a backsplash to create a focal point. Pair them with neutral countertops or cabinets for a balanced yet impactful look.
Chroma Tuscan Red tiles create a feature island, paired with gentle Victorian Pink tiles in the background for balanced contrast.
A tranquil bathroom retreat
Transform your bathroom into a sanctuary by incorporating soothing colours such as Romany Green or Feather Pink. Use these tiles for a feature wall behind a freestanding bath or in a shower niche to evoke calm and relaxation.
These shades can be paired with soft whites and natural textures for a spa-like feel.

Inviting pantries and boot rooms
Practical spaces deserve beauty too. Lichen tiles in a pantry bring a sense of calm order, while the rich tones of Cordovan in a boot room add both elegance and durability.
These tiles are as functional as they are beautiful, standing up to the demands of high-traffic areas while elevating the aesthetic of your home.

Create a cosy nook
For reading nooks or quiet corners, tiles like Cosy Green can add an earthy warmth that feels grounded and inviting. Use these tiles on a single wall or fireplace surround to define the space and make it your own.

The craft behind the colours
Our signature waterfall glazing technique involves layering four glazes with different viscosities and densities. This meticulous process ensures vibrant, even coverage and a depth of colour that mass-produced tiles cannot replicate.
Finally, the tiles are fired at 1008 degrees in our roller kiln, locking in their strength and beauty. It’s this commitment to quality that ensures your tiles will stand the test of time, both in style and durability.
Practical and beautiful
The Chroma collection’s glossy glaze is not only striking but also practical, requiring no sealing. This makes the tiles perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, and other hardworking spaces.
Whether you choose a bold statement colour or a serene neutral, these tiles offer low-maintenance elegance for everyday living.
