Nyuma – Concrete-Inspired Porcelain Tile Collection

The Nyuma Collection by Mirage reimagines the raw, honest beauty of classic cast concrete. Inspired by formwork details and chiaroscuro contrasts, it delivers sophisticated, contemporary surfaces with subtle shading and natural texture.

A new interpretation of classic concrete

Concrete has long been a symbol of modern architecture, valued for its industrial appeal and structural strength. Nyuma reinterprets this material by highlighting its aesthetic potential:

• It reproduces the gentle variations and formwork patterns typical of cast-in-place concrete without exaggerating flaws.

• Subtle chiaroscuro effects create depth and movement, adding architectural interest.

• Mirage’s design approach emphasizes understated elegance that suits both minimalist and industrial-inspired spaces.

Moreover, Nyuma balances authenticity with refinement, making it suitable for diverse design contexts.

A versatile color palette

Nyuma features six carefully curated colors:

• Quicklime: Light, neutral tones for bright, open spaces.

• Portland: Classic cement grey with modern appeal.

• Torching: Deeper, urban-inspired shades for dramatic accents.

• Parker: Warm, natural greys that feel inviting and versatile.

• Talcum: Soft, subtle hues evoking calm and serenity.

• Shotcrete: Bold, structured grey for a contemporary industrial vibe.

In addition, these colors support harmonious transitions across floors and walls, ensuring cohesive design schemes.

Modular formats for design freedom

Nyuma is available in a wide range of modular formats:

• Large slabs such as 1200×2780 mm (6 mm thick) for seamless walls.

• Standard floor sizes like 1200×1200 mm, 800×800 mm, 600×1200 mm and many more, available in 9 mm thickness for robust installation.

• 20 mm EVO_2/E™ outdoor paver versions in select sizes for terraces, patios, and pool decks.

Moreover, this flexibility allows architects to maintain a consistent design language between interiors and exteriors.

Refined surface finishes

Nyuma offers three sophisticated surface finishes:

• Spazzolata (Brushed): Highlights the subtle textures and chiaroscuro shading.

• Natural: A matte finish with a tactile, authentic feel.

• Structured: Enhanced grip and pronounced texture, ideal for outdoor and wet areas.

Furthermore, these finishes provide slip-resistance options (DIN R9–R11), making Nyuma suitable for high-traffic commercial spaces and residential bathrooms alike.

Advanced technical performance

• ≤0.1% water absorption for low porosity and easy maintenance.

• Complies with EN 14411-G porcelain stoneware standards, ensuring dimensional accuracy.

• Frost resistance and thermal shock resistance support outdoor use in diverse climates.

• Chemical resistance and easy cleaning make it ideal for busy commercial spaces.

Therefore, Nyuma combines beauty and reliability in one collection.
