Enso Named Best Tiles at the Livingetc Style Awards 2026
We are proud to announce that our new Enso collection has won a Livingetc 2026 Style Award for Best Tiles.
The Style Awards are chosen by the Livingetc editorial team and celebrate the designs shaping modern homes, from furniture and lighting through to surfaces. To see Enso recognised in its first year, alongside some of the most exciting design of 2026, is a real moment for us and for the makers behind the collection.
What the Livingetc Team Said
"Our love for organic edges continues to endure — and that's particularly true of the Enso tile collection by Ca' Pietra, which comes ready weathered, its irregular edges seemingly already loved for years.
It's the sort of design that makes everything around it more characterful, adding bags of charm to a new project. 'These tiles are so soft and pretty,' says Hugh Metcalf, editor of Livingetc.com. 'I love how individual each one is.'"
The Collection behind the award
Enso mosaics are irresistibly tactile, with a softly undulating surface designed to be experienced as much by touch as by sight. Named after the Zen Buddhist theme of Ensō, which encompasses the ideals of wholeness through imperfection, these mosaics evoke the look of crystal-clear streams flowing over pebbles, each one gently rounding and becoming more characterful over time. Light them for best effect, to reveal a dappled, organic texture.
That sense of age is the heart of the collection. No two pieces are identical and no edge is truly straight, which is exactly why a newly finished room laid in Enso never feels newly finished at all.
How to use it
Enso comes in Chalk, Sand and Charcoal, in cube and strip formats, with a Sand and Chalk chess design for a gentle pattern.
Pair Enso Chalk and Sand with limestones and Ottoman marble for a soft neutral scheme, or combine Enso Charcoal with wood-effect porcelain or deep, rich tones for something more dramatic. Charcoal can be finished with a standard sealer for a natural grey, or with a black stone sealer for a richer off-black look.
