AUSTRAL WHITE-BODY WALL TILE BY COLORKER

Andes & Austral white-body wall tile by Colorker

The Andes & Austral white-body wall tile by Colorker develops a ceramic proposal focused on brightness, purity and the versatility of white. Colorker brings together two complementary interpretations of the same concept within this collection: Austral in a gloss finish and Andes in a matt finish, allowing a choice between a more reflective and luminous surface or a softer and more restrained aesthetic.

The collection is specifically designed for wall covering and is completed by decorative pieces and reliefs such as Kube and Duna, which make it possible to introduce volume and texture while maintaining the chromatic continuity of white.

Andes & Austral is particularly suitable for bathrooms, kitchens and interior spaces where a clear, neutral and easy-to-combine surface is required. The absence of dominant colours makes it possible to integrate the collection into minimalist, contemporary, Mediterranean, Nordic or more sophisticated interiors.

Pure White: white as the main feature

Colorker defines Andes and Austral through the concept of Pure White, concentrating the brightness of a pure and energetic white within these series. Colour no longer works only as a background, but becomes a genuine tool for creating visually cleaner, more open and brighter spaces.

White helps enhance natural light and creates an architectural base onto which timber, stone, cement, marble, metals or decorative colours can be introduced.

This neutrality also makes future changes to furniture and accessories easier, as the wall covering remains a versatile surface capable of accompanying different styles over time.

Austral: white with a gloss finish

Austral is the gloss interpretation of the collection. Its finish reflects light and gives white a brighter appearance, making it particularly attractive in interiors where increased luminosity is desired.

The gloss effect can contribute to a greater visual sense of depth and is especially suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, cloakrooms and spaces with carefully designed lighting.

Austral can be used on complete walls or combined with decorative pieces from the collection to introduce texture variations without leaving the white palette.

Andes: white with a matt finish

Andes develops the same chromatic philosophy through a matt finish. The result is a visually softer white surface with a more restrained presence, particularly easy to integrate into projects with a natural or minimalist aesthetic.

The matt finish reduces the prominence of reflections and allows other materials in the project, such as timber, stone, fabrics or metals, to stand out against a neutral base.

Andes can be used as the principal wall covering in a room or as a counterpoint to glossy surfaces when different finishes are required within the same colour range.

Austral and Andes: two finishes for the same language

One of the principal advantages of the collection is the possibility of working with white through two different visual interpretations. Austral provides gloss and reflection, while Andes offers a more discreet matt finish.

Both proposals can be used independently or distributed across different areas of the same project to maintain a common aesthetic based on white.

For example, Austral can be used in a bathroom where greater luminosity is desired, while Andes can be reserved for other areas where a softer and more architectural appearance is required.

A wide variety of formats

The Andes & Austral collection is available in different formats depending on the reference, including 39.6x119.6 cm, 31.6x100 cm, 30.5x60.5 cm, 29.5x90 cm and 29.5x59.5 cm.

This variety makes it possible to adapt the wall covering to walls of very different dimensions. Elongated formats favour broad and contemporary compositions, while more compact sizes make installation easier on smaller surfaces or areas with more junctions and cuts.

The exact availability should be checked for each model and finish before ordering.

39.6x119.6 format

The 39.6x119.6 cm format offers very elongated proportions that make it possible to create large vertical surfaces with a visually broad module.

It can be installed horizontally to reinforce the width of the wall or vertically to emphasise the height of the room.

This size is particularly suitable for spacious bathrooms, shower areas, principal walls and interior-design projects where the visual presence of grout lines should be reduced.

31.6x100 format

The 31.6x100 cm format maintains highly versatile rectangular proportions and makes it possible to create ordered walls in both horizontal and vertical layouts.

Its size can be adapted to bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, commercial interiors and other spaces where elongated geometry helps reinforce the architecture.

Decorative references such as Duna are also available in this format, expanding the possibilities for combining smooth and textured surfaces.

30.5x60.5 format

The 30.5x60.5 cm format introduces a more compact module. It is suitable for medium-sized walls, areas with several junctions and projects where a slightly more visible grout pattern is desired.

Its rectangular proportions preserve a contemporary aesthetic without necessarily requiring very long pieces.

It can be used independently or coordinated with other white surfaces within the same project.

29.5x90 format

The 29.5x90 cm format combines a relatively narrow width with considerable length, allowing horizontal or vertical compositions with a slender character.

Its geometry adapts especially well to bathrooms, basin walls, kitchens and decorative areas where the format can follow furniture and linear architectural elements.

The orientation should be selected according to the proportions of the wall and the desired visual effect.

29.5x59.5 format

The 29.5x59.5 cm format offers a more modular solution for surfaces where longer formats may require too many cuts.

Its dimensions adapt easily to smaller walls, cloakrooms, kitchens and areas with doors, niches or other architectural elements.

Despite its more compact size, it maintains the clean and contemporary aesthetic characteristic of Andes & Austral.

Austral Kube relief

Austral Kube introduces relief into the glossy Austral proposal. The texture changes the way light interacts with the surface and makes it possible to create decorative walls while maintaining the same white language.

It can be used across a complete wall or reserved for a specific area such as the back of a shower, a basin wall or a principal feature surface.

Combining it with smooth Austral helps balance the volume and prevents texture from dominating the complete room.

Andes Kube relief

Andes Kube transfers the relief concept to the matt version of the collection. The combination of white, volume and the absence of intense gloss creates a surface with an architectural character.

Side or indirect lighting can help highlight the geometry of the relief and create changing shadows across the wall.

Andes Kube can be combined with smooth Andes to create transitions between flat and textured surfaces without changing the overall colour.

Austral Duna and Andes Duna

The Austral Duna and Andes Duna references expand the decorative possibilities of the collection through relief surfaces.

These models make it possible to introduce movement on selected walls while preserving the chromatic purity of white.

Duna pieces can be concentrated in specific areas to turn one wall into a focal point and combined with smooth Austral or Andes bases to maintain a balanced composition.

Relief as a decorative resource

In an entirely white project, texture becomes especially important. Reliefs make it possible to differentiate surfaces without introducing another colour.

Light falling across raised and recessed areas creates shadows and changes the appearance of the wall throughout the day.

This strategy is especially suitable for minimalist projects where visual richness is required without relying on intense colour patterns.

Wall covering for interior surfaces

Andes & Austral is designed as a wall-covering collection. Its principal function is to cover interior vertical surfaces and provide the project with a coordinated white base.

The collection includes solutions classified by Colorker as white-body wall tiles and Thinck fine ceramic stoneware, depending on the reference and format.

Before selecting the product, the specific characteristics of each model should be checked to ensure that it corresponds to the required format, finish and application.

White-body tiles for interior projects

The white-body references are designed for interior ceramic wall covering and make it possible to create clean and decorative walls.

The white ceramic body fits especially well within a collection where white itself is the principal design concept.

The format and finish should be chosen according to the dimensions of the room, the project design and the surface to be covered.

Thinck fine ceramic stoneware

The collection also includes solutions within Colorker’s Thinck concept, identified by the brand as fine ceramic stoneware.

These references make it possible to develop formats with greater visual presence while maintaining the collection’s role as a wall covering.

Thinck availability depends on the selected model and format, so the specific product sheet should be checked for each reference.

White bathrooms with Andes & Austral

The bathroom is one of the most natural spaces for this collection. White increases the sense of brightness and provides a visually clean base for sanitaryware, furniture, taps and accessories.

Austral can be used when a brighter and more reflective surface is desired. Andes offers a matt alternative for calmer interiors.

Kube or Duna reliefs can be reserved for the back wall of a shower, the basin wall or another selected area that should become more prominent.

Shower walls

Shower walls are especially suitable for taking advantage of the combination of smooth and decorative surfaces.

A relief can be used on the principal wall while the side walls remain smooth, keeping the complete composition within the same white palette.

The position of taps, niches and shower-screen profiles should be planned before installation to achieve a balanced result.

Basin walls

Andes & Austral can be used behind the basin as a background for wall-mounted furniture, mirrors and lighting systems.

White allows timber, stone or strongly coloured furniture to stand out and works especially well with black or metallic taps.

Using a relief behind the mirror or vanity unit can introduce depth without changing the overall shade.

Bright white kitchens

Colorker highlights bathrooms and kitchens as spaces particularly well suited to these white proposals thanks to their neutrality and ability to support everyday use.

In a kitchen, Andes or Austral can be used as wall coverings and combined with white, black, grey, green, blue or timber cabinetry.

A white surface helps keep the work area visually clean and integrates easily with worktops made from different materials.

Kitchens with timber furniture

Timber introduces warmth and prevents a white kitchen from appearing excessively cold. Oak, walnut and other natural shades can be combined easily with Andes & Austral.

Austral introduces more reflections and brightness, while Andes provides a softer matt background.

Pale worktops maintain a more uniform composition, while black or grey stone creates stronger contrast.

Living rooms with white wall coverings

White ceramic wall coverings can also be used in living rooms to transform a wall into a more architectural surface than conventional paint.

Andes can be especially interesting where a discreet matt white is desired. Austral introduces a brighter and more reflective appearance.

Relief pieces can be used behind furniture, a console table or within a decorative area to introduce texture.

Bedrooms and headboards

A white ceramic wall can act as a headboard background in contemporary bedrooms. Its neutrality makes it possible to change fabrics and furniture without altering the base of the project.

Andes introduces a calm matt aesthetic, while Austral can be used in projects where a brighter presence is preferred.

Relief pieces make it possible to create decorative headboards without introducing additional colours.

Hotels and contract projects

The versatility of white allows Andes & Austral to be integrated into hotel rooms, bathrooms, reception areas and shared spaces.

The same collection can create different atmospheres through the choice between matt, gloss and relief pieces.

The result maintains a common identity and facilitates visual coordination between different rooms.

Shops and professional spaces

In shops, offices, beauty centres, clinics, restaurants and other professional interiors, white can act as a neutral base that allows furniture, products, lighting or corporate identity to stand out.

Smooth surfaces provide a more discreet appearance, while reliefs can be concentrated around reception desks, counters or feature walls.

This flexibility allows the collection to adapt to very different projects while maintaining its characteristic white aesthetic.

Combining with natural timber

Timber is one of the most suitable materials for balancing pure white. It introduces texture, warmth and a natural reference into the space.

Pale oak creates bright Nordic-inspired interiors. Walnut and darker woods generate a more sophisticated contrast.

Timber can be incorporated through furniture, doors, shelving, wall panels and decorative elements.

Combining with wood-effect flooring

Wood-effect flooring makes it possible to retain the performance of a ceramic floor while visually introducing the warmth of timber.

This combination works especially well in bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, hotels and residential projects.

Pale shades maintain a soft palette, while darker woods create a stronger separation from the white wall covering.

Combining with marble

The white surface of Andes & Austral can be combined with marble-effect porcelain tiles to create more sophisticated interiors.

White marble with veining maintains a pale palette while introducing graphic movement. Dark marble creates a much stronger contrast.

The white wall covering can be used to balance the presence of veining and prevent the complete room from becoming excessively graphic.

Combining with stone

Stone effects introduce a mineral and natural dimension alongside white. Beige and sand tones create warm atmospheres, while grey provides a more contemporary interpretation.

Stone can be used principally on the floor or on one selected wall, leaving Andes or Austral as the main wall covering.

The contrast between a white surface and a more graphically rich stone helps define different areas within the space.

Combining with cement

Cement-effect flooring creates a more urban and minimalist relationship with Andes & Austral.

Pale cement tones keep the space bright and continuous. Medium and dark greys define the transition between floor and walls more clearly.

This combination works especially well with black taps, contemporary furniture and metal elements.

Combining with black

Black creates one of the most direct contrasts with the white of the collection. It can be introduced through shower screens, profiles, taps, mirrors, lighting and furniture.

On Austral, the contrast is combined with the reflections of the gloss surface. On Andes, it creates a more matt and architectural graphic composition.

The balance between the two colours will depend on the size and brightness of the room.

Combining with warm metals

Brass, bronze and golden finishes introduce warmth and sophistication against a white surface.

They can be used in taps, profiles, lighting, handles or smaller accessories, while keeping the wall covering as a neutral background.

This combination works especially well when accompanied by timber, beige stone or natural fabrics.

Combining with stronger colours

The neutrality of Andes & Austral makes it possible to introduce almost any colour through furniture, fabrics, paint or decorative elements.

Green, blue, terracotta, mustard or dark tones can be used as accents without competing with the wall covering.

White acts as a stabilising element and makes it possible to change the decorative palette later without replacing the walls.

Minimalist style

Andes is especially suitable for minimalist interiors thanks to its matt finish and visually calm character.

It can be combined with furniture with straight lines, neutral flooring and integrated lighting to create ordered spaces.

A relief used selectively can add depth without breaking the reduced colour palette characteristic of minimalism.

Contemporary style

The combination of white surfaces, rectangular formats and different finishes allows Andes & Austral to be integrated easily into contemporary projects.

Gloss can be used to increase the presence of light, while matt provides greater balance. Decorative pieces introduce texture in selected areas.

Materials such as timber, cement, black metal and stone complement this language naturally.

Mediterranean style

White is one of the principal colours in Mediterranean interiors and can be combined with pale timber, woven fibres, linen, sand tones and plants.

Andes provides a particularly natural matt appearance, while Austral can be used to introduce areas of greater brightness.

The result can remain very light and relaxed while still incorporating decorative ceramic surfaces.

Nordic style

In Nordic-inspired interiors, Andes & Austral can be combined with pale timber, neutral fabrics and a palette based on whites, beige and soft greys.

The wall covering helps enhance light and provides a clean base for furniture with simple lines.

Reliefs can be used in moderation to introduce texture while preserving overall simplicity.

Gloss versus matt

The choice between Austral and Andes depends largely on the character required for the space.

Austral gloss intensifies light reflection and creates a brighter presence. Andes matt offers a more restrained surface and reduces reflections.

There is no single correct option: both finishes belong to the same white language and allow very different atmospheres to be created.

Lighting on Austral

Because of its gloss finish, lighting plays a particularly important role on Austral. Windows, light fittings and other light sources can be reflected across the surface and change its perception.

In smaller interiors, this effect can contribute to a greater visual sense of brightness.

The distribution of light sources should be considered carefully to avoid unwanted reflections in specific areas.

Lighting on Andes

Andes responds more softly to light thanks to its matt finish. This allows a more uniform reading of the wall and makes indirect lighting easier to integrate.

Grazing light can be used especially on reliefs to highlight the volume through shadow.

A warm colour temperature can soften the white, while more neutral lighting maintains a purer appearance.

Horizontal installation

Rectangular formats can be installed horizontally to visually reinforce the width of the wall.

This orientation works especially well on basin walls, around baths, in kitchens and on long walls.

The layout should be planned before installation begins to distribute cuts correctly and avoid excessively narrow pieces at the ends.

Vertical installation

Vertical installation emphasises height and gives the format a more slender appearance.

It can be particularly attractive in showers, on narrow walls, in entrance halls and commercial interiors.

The position of furniture, fittings and other elements should be taken into account when defining the tile distribution.

Planning relief pieces

Kube and Duna reliefs should be planned before installation begins to determine exactly which surface they will occupy.

It may be more balanced to concentrate texture on one wall or selected area and use smooth pieces across the remaining surfaces.

Lighting should also form part of this planning because it directly influences the perception of volume.

Choosing the grout colour

White grout or grout close to the colour of the wall covering helps maintain a visually continuous surface.

A contrasting shade would clearly define each format and turn the installation grid into an additional decorative element.

The final choice should be made according to the desired result and tested beforehand on a small area.

Preparing the substrate

Before the wall covering is installed, the substrate must be stable, clean, dry and correctly levelled.

Flatness is especially important with longer formats to achieve regular alignment between pieces.

The adhesive and installation materials should be selected according to the substrate, format and specific conditions of the project.

Andes & Austral: white wall tile by Colorker

The Andes & Austral white-body wall tile by Colorker offers a broad and versatile solution for projects where white is intended to become the principal feature of the walls.

The collection makes it possible to choose between Austral in a gloss finish and Andes in a matt finish, while also incorporating reliefs such as Kube and Duna to create decorative surfaces that maintain the same chromatic identity.

Its range of formats, including 39.6x119.6, 31.6x100, 30.5x60.5, 29.5x90 and 29.5x59.5 cm depending on the reference, allows the collection to be adapted to walls and spaces of very different dimensions.

Andes & Austral is particularly suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, living rooms, hotels, shops and professional projects where brightness, neutrality and the possibility of combining smooth, matt, gloss and relief surfaces within the same white collection are required.
