D26-27555

D26-27555 is a mid gray with a matte textured face, five random faces per design. Planks are 8 x 48 inches in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, a carton of 5 covering 12.91 sq ft at 25 kg. Among the D26 greys this is the one for offices, clinics and waiting rooms: the matte face does not bounce ceiling lights back at people sitting under them, it takes rolling chairs and casters, and gray shows no dust between cleans. Long gray planks keep a large room calm without reading as sheet material, because the grain is still legible. It works with white, black, light oak and plants, and it does not date.
