clé notes

What is white? It seems like a straightforward question, but in the world of tile, it turns out, the answer is anything but simple. In every discussion of white, you'll find "experts" who opine that it's not a color at all, but rather the absence of color. That couldn't be further from the truth. In reality, every color we see is a product of light – the part of the spectrum an object's surface most reflects determines what color we perceive it to be.

we've spent the last few posts looking at the surprisingly diverse world of white tile at clé – a wide-ranging collection we've dubbed winter white—and talking about how different types of tile express different aspects of this perennially popular hue.
