Skywash Blue ceramic brick is a pale, atmospheric blue handmade glazed ceramic tile inspired by washed skies, calm coastal water and the soft mineral tones found in traditional hand-glazed ceramics. Light, fresh and quietly expressive, it brings an airy architectural quality to the De Ferranti x AAA – Alvaro Afonso Atelier brick collection.

Part of The Blues Bricks Collection, Skywash Blue ceramic brick has been developed through the collaboration between De Ferranti and AAA – Alvaro Afonso Atelier. The collection explores the relationship between colour, glaze, handmade surface and elongated brick proportion, creating ceramic tiles that feel both artisanal and highly architectural.

The elongated format gives Skywash Blue ceramic brick a strong linear rhythm, making it ideal for walls, splashbacks, shower areas and decorative architectural surfaces. Subtle crazing, edge irregularity and gentle shifts in glaze tone allow the surface to feel handcrafted rather than uniform. Across larger installations, the colour creates a calm, flowing field of blue that responds beautifully to both natural and artificial light.

The glaze sits between pale sky blue, soft mineral blue and a lightly washed coastal tone. It has enough colour to bring freshness to a room, but remains restrained enough to work in sophisticated residential and hospitality interiors. Used alone, it creates a serene, luminous surface. Used with deeper blues such as Midnight Delft MK702, Imperial Navy MK709 and Azure Tide MK710, it brings balance, air and softness to a more layered composition.

Skywash Blue ceramic brick is particularly suited to Bathrooms, Kitchens, Shower Walls, Spa Areas, Splashbacks, Indoor Pools, Boutique Hotels and Luxury Residential Projects. Its appeal lies in its quiet clarity – a handmade glazed ceramic tile that brings colour without heaviness and craftsmanship without visual noise.

Designing with the Skywash Blue ceramic brick

The pale glaze can provide a quiet counterpoint to timber, stone, plaster and darker blue ceramics in considered schemes.

Other colours within The Blues Bricks family include Azure Tide, Imperial Navy, Midnight Delft and Mistwashed Sky.

The Skywash Blue ceramic brick can be paired with the related blue brick tones above to create gentle contrast, tonal variation and a more individually composed surface while maintaining the rhythm of the elongated format.
