D-Bar Mono – Black brings monochrome ceramic tiles into De Ferranti’s Modernist collection by Neisha Crosland, using a reduced single-colour motif to create rhythm, contrast and control. The black linework gives the surface definition, while the pale ground keeps the repeat clear and usable. The result is a hand-painted antiqued terracotta tile with graphic strength and a softened, tactile finish.

Monochrome Ceramic Tiles with Graphic Discipline

Within the Neisha Crosland Modernist collection, D-Bar Mono – Black shows how a simple bar motif can become a complete decorative field. The repeated form is clean and ordered, but the hand-painted finish prevents the surface from feeling too rigid or mechanically printed.

The tile is available as a single motif 10 x 10 cm format, or as a four-motif 20 x 20 cm format. This gives designers useful control over scale. The smaller format creates a finer, more intricate rhythm, while the larger format gives the pattern more presence across walls, floors and feature areas.

Surface Character and Project Use

As monochrome ceramic tiles, this design is particularly useful where a room needs structure without relying on colour. It can work across bathrooms, kitchens, fireplace surrounds, residential interiors, restaurants, swimming pool areas and warm-climate external settings where the specification is suitable. The black and pale palette can sit well with limestone, marble, plaster, timber, bronze, blackened metal and other restrained material schemes.
