Can you identify the unusual white tiles or wallcovering that appeared on page 34 of the Homes & Gardens, October 2008 issue?
GA, Chrishall, Hertfordshire.

The photograph was taken at the Design Club at Chelsea Harbour Design Centre, and the plaster tiles were designed for the project by Rabih Hage, www.rabih-hage.com. Each tile, which measures 40cm sq, is composed of four squares. They can be produced to order; price on application. Other wallcoverings that give a similar 3D effect include the Facet panels by Mobilia, www.mobilia.ltd.uk. Made from lightweight resin, they measure 60cm sq each and can be primed white or finished in coloured lacquer, from £84.10 each. Another option is the Sculptural pre-cast panels (pictured) from Armourcoat, www.sculptural.armourcoat.com, made from a mineral-based compound with a ceramic-like surface. Prices start at around £230sq m.
