Habitat Pearl - Timeless base for your wall design

The Habitat Pearl wall tiles offer a perfect neutral base for any room in your home. These high-quality ceramic wall tiles in a soft ivory white hue radiate peace and quality. The smooth, matte finish provides a subdued yet refined look that won't bore you quickly.

With their generous size of 34x66.5 cm, these tiles create a calm wall surface with fewer joints. The rectified edges allow for minimal joint width for a sleek, modern look. This basic tile is designed to stand alone or to be combined with the decorative Habitat Stripe and Square variants from the same collection.

Versatile applications throughout the home

Forget the idea that these tiles are only suitable for the bathroom. The Habitat Pearl tiles are perfect for various spaces:

• Bathroom : Create a calm, spa-like atmosphere that won't age quickly. The matte finish prevents annoying light reflections and is practical to use.

• Kitchen : Use as a timeless back wall that combines well with all kitchen styles, from country to ultramodern. The neutral base makes your kitchen appliances and accessories stand out.

• Living Room : Use as an accent or feature wall to bring calm to a busy living space, or use behind a stove or fireplace for a practical yet stylish solution.

• Toilet : Create a spacious feeling in this often smaller space. The neutral color reflects light without being overpowering.

• Bedroom : Design a serene headboard wall that exudes tranquility and provides a perfect backdrop for your bed and nightstands.

• Hallway : Create a bright, inviting entrance that immediately gives your guests a sense of space and tranquility.

Design possibilities that inspire

The neutral Habitat Pearl tiles are a perfect canvas for various styles:

• Tone-on-tone : Combine with other light materials and furniture for a soft, harmonious look that creates peace and space.

• Contrast game : Let the light tiles contrast with dark accents such as black taps, furniture or accessories for a dynamic look.

• Textural approach : Mix the smooth Pearl tiles with the texture-rich Square or Stripe variants from the same collection for a subtle yet interesting wall design.

• Color accents : Use the neutral ivory tiles as a calm base and add color accents through accessories, towels or plants that are easy to replace if you want to change color.

Material benefits that make the difference

The Habitat Pearl wall tiles offer practical benefits that you experience every day:

• Uniform appearance : The smooth finish provides a consistent look without disruptive variations or surprises during installation.

• Matte finish : Prevents annoying light reflections and shows stains and water droplets less quickly than glossy tiles.

• Easy to maintain : The ceramic construction makes daily cleaning easy with regular, mild cleaning agents.

• Colourfast : The high-quality Paste Branca composition ensures that the ivory shade does not yellow or discolour, even after years of use in damp areas.

• Heat resistant : Perfect for use behind hobs or fireplaces thanks to the high heat resistance of ceramic.

Tips for the best results

• Use an ivory or white grout of maximum 2mm width for a seamless, smooth wall finish that allows the tiles to flow together.

• Consider a playful variation by combining the Pearl base tiles with decorative Habitat Stripe or Square tiles in a symmetrical or asymmetrical pattern.

• Place lighting such as wall spotlights or indirect LED lighting so that the matt surface is illuminated beautifully and evenly without harsh shadows.

• For a modern look: combine with matt black accessories, taps and fixtures that create a strong yet stylish contrast with the light tiles.

• For a warmer look, add wooden elements such as a shelf, bathroom furniture or accessories in natural wood that soften the ivory shade.

• In damp areas: treat the joints with a joint impregnation to prevent mould formation and to keep the joints looking good for a long time.

• For a personal touch: create a small accent (for example one strip) with the matching decorative tiles from the Habitat collection.

Technical details

Frequently asked questions about Habitat Pearl tiles

Can I use this tile outside?

This wall tile is designed for indoor use and is not frost-resistant. For outdoor applications, we recommend special outdoor tiles that are resistant to frost, temperature fluctuations and weather influences. Our advisors will be happy to help you find suitable outdoor tiles that match your Habitat indoor tiles in terms of colour and style.

What is the difference between the Pearl, Stripe Pearl and Square Pearl variants?

The Pearl is a plain base tile with a calm, uniform appearance. The Stripe Pearl has a subtle horizontal stripe pattern that adds texture and movement. The Square Pearl has a delicate mosaic pattern that adds depth and character. All three share the same ivory white base colour and are designed to be used both individually and in combination.

How do I clean these tiles?

For daily maintenance, wipe with a damp cloth and a pH-neutral all-purpose cleaner. Avoid abrasives and acidic cleaners that can damage the matt finish. For stubborn stains in damp areas, you can use a specific tile cleaner that is suitable for ceramic tiles. We recommend impregnating the joints when installing in the bathroom or shower.

How do I determine how many tiles I need?

Measure the total wall area you wish to tile in square metres. Each box of Habitat Pearl contains 1.36 m² of tiles. To calculate the number of boxes you will need, divide your total area by 1.36 and round up. We recommend ordering approximately 10% extra for cutting waste and possible future repairs.

Can I combine this tile with underfloor heating or wall heating?

Yes, Habitat Pearl wall tiles can be perfectly combined with heating systems. Ceramic tiles conduct heat well and are resistant to temperature changes. For optimal performance with wall heating, we recommend using a tile adhesive that is specifically suitable for heated surfaces. Consult our advisors for the correct materials and installation techniques.
