The ATAR Checkerboard 2×2 Zellige Tile features a deep green tone inspired by Moroccan gardens, cedar forests, and traditional architectural details. Paired with a soft off-white contrast, this classic checkerboard layout highlights the authenticity of handcrafted zellige while bringing balance and visual rhythm to any space.
Each tile is handmade using traditional Moroccan techniques, resulting in subtle glaze variations, natural color movement, and gently irregular edges. These characteristics are not imperfections but a signature of true zellige craftsmanship, ensuring that every installation is unique and full of character.
The rich green shade adds depth and elegance, making ATAR suitable for both heritage interiors and contemporary designs. Whether used as a full surface or as a decorative accent, this checkerboard pattern delivers timeless appeal with an artisanal soul.
Designed for versatility, ATAR zellige tiles can be used in residential and commercial environments. They are suitable for high-traffic interior floors such as kitchens, primary bathrooms, and entryways, as well as low-traffic areas like guest bathrooms and bedrooms. The tile also performs beautifully on interior walls, including kitchen backsplashes, bathroom walls, and statement feature walls.
For more demanding applications, ATAR is appropriate for shower walls and floors, including steam showers, and can be installed in pools and spas with either saltwater or chlorine systems. It is compatible with radiant heated floor systems and can be used on fireplace surrounds, excluding the interior firebox.
In exterior settings, this tile may be installed on exterior walls and outdoor floors in non-freeze climates.
❌ It is not suitable for exterior floors exposed to freeze or thaw conditions, such as snow or ice.
