Meet Marie, One of Our Bestselling Cement Tiles

by Drew Henry on Oct 23 2024

Discover Why the Marie Cement Tile is a Customer Favorite At LiLi Tile, our talented designers create hundreds of bright, colorful, and eye-catching cement tile patterns. We have a tile for every personality (and design style), and we’re always excited to see what resonates with homeowners. Time and time again, our customers tell us just how much they love Marie. Based on classic cement tile patterns, Marie is one of our most versatile and character-rich designs. Since she’s become so popular, we’ve decided it’s time to introduce you and share why Marie is one of our bestselling cement tiles yet. Let Us Introduce You to Marie Meet Marie! Like all LiLi cement tiles, Maire starts off as a mixture of the finest Portland cement hand poured into a mold and delicately colored with the highest-quality pigments. She’s placed under 2,000 psi of pressure to become extra strong and left to relax and cure for 11 days before being shipped off to homes like yours. Marie has become one of our most popular and bestselling cement tiles because of her classic design that works with many styles. Original Moroccan cement tiles inspire her geometric floral-and-star pattern. Of course, Marie takes her own modern twist. Colorways include simple black and white, a version with warm gray-and-yellow accents, and an all-blue rendition. Which one is your favorite? What’s Marie’s Interior Design Style? Marie is a stylish tile, but she’s also adaptable. This cement tile complements many interior design styles, including some of the LiLi Team’s favorite looks. Mediterranean Old-world Moroccan designs inspire the Marie cement tile. So, of course, she feels right at home in the Mediterranean design style. The Mediterranean style is traditionally grounded in neutrals and employs bold accents for an impactful and inviting space. Coastal The Marie 6 cement tile features shades of white, jean blue, and navy, creating a color story reminiscent of the coastline. Many customers have used Marie 6 in their coastal-inspired spaces, from pool houses to beachside patios. Maximalist The Marie 1 tile’s bold black-and-white color palette is gorgeously geometric. The design is eye-catching, making a great neutral base for maximalist interiors. Marie delivers a stunning feature for customers who love patterns just as much as us. Cozy The Marie 5 cement tile includes accents of warm iron gray and ecru yellow for a warm, cozy feel. These inviting colors are perfect for focal point accents like fireplaces and fit seamlessly into transitional design schemes. How to Use This Bestselling Cement Tile Pattern in Your Home Homeowners across the country use the Marie tile to create spaces they love. If you don’t know where to incorporate this tile into your home just yet, don’t worry. The LiLi team of home experts has a few ideas on how to use this bestselling cement tile. Shower Nook Accent Bold patterns like Marie go a long way. Consider pairing Marie with a crisp white subway tile or solid cement tile to create a focal point. We’ve seen clients use the Marie tile as a shower nook accent with stunning results. While you’re at it, use Marie as your bathroom backsplash to further tie the space together! Kitchen Backsplash The best way to jump-start your kitchen remodel is with a fresh backsplash tile. The kitchen backsplash is one of the first things you see, and Marie’s bold design will liven up your space. We find this tile works well alongside white cabinets, but we’ve also seen customers get creative with two-toned cabinets in white and blue shades. Flooring for Indoors and Out Did you know that cement tile is durable enough to be installed indoors and out? That’s right! You can install cement tile outdoors for a patio refresh. Some of our clients have even installed the Marie pattern to run continuously from their interior to the patio to increase their home’s indoor-outdoor connection and sense of flow. Outdoor Fireplace With its warm gray-and-yellow accents, the Marie 5 pattern can’t help but make your space feel cozy. Upgrade your outdoor fireplace with a Marie tile surround that invites your friends and family to gather around the fire. We love how the golden ecru color complements the autumn leaves when the seasons change, too. Why is Marie One of Our Bestselling Cement Tiles?

Many sustainability-minded homeowners also appreciate cement tiles for their eco-friendly design. We use the same energy-free manufacturing process developed in the 1850s, creating less waste and consumption while still delivering a stunning product. All of this plus a gorgeous geometric design, what’s not to love? We Love Marie and Hope You Do, Too! We’re so happy to have introduced you and Marie.
