There is something magnetic about a surface that invites you to touch it. At Arto, we’ve always believed that tile shouldn’t just cover a wall or floor; it should tell a story through its texture.
Today, we are thrilled to unveil our latest collection: The Studio Corduroy Collection.

Design Without Boundaries

The defining feature of the Studio Corduroy collection is its signature texture. Featuring a rhythmic, linear “corduroy” pattern, the high-fired terracotta creates a striking sense of motion. Here is the best part: The texture’s direction shifts according to the tile’s dimensions. Whether you’re looking for a vertical lift or a horizontal flow, this collection allows you to play with light and shadow in a way that normal tiles simply can’t match.

“The Studio Corduroy Collection is a direct answer to the demand for truly unique, design-forward surfaces,” says Armen Alajian, CEO of Arto Brick. “We are returning complete creative authority to the designer.”

Your Vision, Made to Order

We don’t believe in “one size fits all.” Like most of our handcrafted products, Studio Corduroy is made to order, giving you ultimate creative control over your project.

  • The Palette: Choose from 46 signature Arto colors.
  • The Sizes: Available in 2″ x 8″, 4″ x 4″, and 4″ x 8″ (all 1/2″ thick).
  • The Finishes: Select from Unglazed, Glazed, or Overglazed—the latter making this collection a stunning choice for luxury pool applications.
