Tangent Tile Lime Milk

Within the Sim.PL collection, Carocim chose to be its own artist: the workshop drew these symmetrical curves internally rather than commissioning an outside name. Carreau Tangeant Lait de Chaux embodies that self-authored minimalism — a whitewash-toned cement tile whose design distils decades of pattern-making know-how. Elsewhere in the catalogue Carocim does collaborate with designers, but Sim.PL is the house speaking.

Yes, serenely: rated for outdoor use, Carreau Tangeant Lait de Chaux carries the anti-UV treatment Carocim systematically applies to its exterior cement tiles, and its limewash white is naturally among the most sun-stable shades imaginable. Full afternoon exposure on a balcony will not dull it. Just maintain the protective sealer and rinse with pH-neutral soap now and then.

A 20 x 20 cm module tells a different visual story than large slabs: with Carreau Tangeant Lait de Chaux, the grid of fine joints and repeating white curves gives walls and floors rhythm and craftsmanship, where oversized tiles aim for seamless silence. In small rooms, this Carocim cement tile format actually flatters proportions, adding detail without shrinking the space.

Two tangent circles are the whole secret: Carocim built the Sim.PL collection on elementary geometry, and Carreau Tangeant Lait de Chaux draws its curves from that vocabulary — arcs meeting and parting like ripples on water. The limewash white palette nods to southern facades washed with chaux. A cement tile reduced to light, line and calm.

In an all-white contemporary bathroom, texture is what saves the scheme from silence: Carreau Tangeant Lait de Chaux adds exactly that, its tone-on-tone curves catching the light differently across each hand-pressed Carocim surface. The cement tile grid brings artisanal warmth without breaking the minimal palette. Floor, shower wall or vanity splashback — quiet character, guaranteed.
