The Gemini porcelain panel collection by Laminam®, introduced by Crossville, presents a sleek, ultra-thin solution for expansive wall applications. With a 2mm profile and 1m x 3m format, Gemini offers plaster-like textures and warm earth tones that balance serenity with scale. Developed in Italy, this collection is engineered for sustainable versatility and designed to meet the demands of contemporary commercial, hospitality, and residential environments.
“Gemini challenges everything designers thought they knew about porcelain tile,” said Crossville’s Scott Jones. Suitable for everything from hotel lobbies to cruise ships, the collection's lightweight nature enables easy installation—even over existing surfaces. Its minimal yet textured finish provides a modern material alternative that feels refined without compromise. Whether in a gallery-like dining room or a private home, Gemini invites vertical surfaces to make a quiet but lasting impact.
