Daltile Limestone Sormonne Brun

The Limestone Sormonne Brun in 12" x 24" is the everyday format, and it is popular for a reason: it covers ground quickly and still works around fixtures without a pile of offcuts. A honed surface sits between matte and polished: a little depth, none of the glare, and better underfoot than a full polish. The low absorption is the reason porcelain ends up in wet rooms and entries. It takes water, salt and grit without complaint. Worth seeing in person in Mississauga or Barrie, because lighting changes tile more than people expect.
