Crossville Debuts Rural Retreat Wood-Look Porcelain Tile

Crossville introduced its first line of wood-look porcelain tiles created especially for residential interiors and exteriors. The American-made Rural Retreat is inspired by the timelessness of “live sawn” natural white oak, enhanced by the commercial-quality and durability of porcelain.

The collection showcases the highly sought-after “live sawn” white oak visual, which features tight, vertical grains. In real wood, “live sawn” refers to the center cut of the log, offering a unique character that’s typically very expensive in hardwood flooring. Rural Retreat comes at an affordable price while offering the durability of porcelain.

One of the standout features of Rural Retreat is its versatility. The tiles are not only ideal for interior spaces like kitchens and living rooms but are also designed for exterior applications—making them perfect for creating cohesive indoor-outdoor living environments. Thanks to a unique exterior finish, often available in Crossville’s commercial lines, Rural Retreat offers unmatched durability for outdoor spaces as well.

Rural Retreat combines the beauty of wood with the practical benefits of porcelain—offering high durability, water resistance, and low maintenance. With five stunning colors, the collection includes generous 8” x 48” planks, ideal for creating expansive, seamless designs in both residential and commercial spaces. To complement the planks, Rural Retreat also offers cove base and bullnose trim, plus two mosaic options, giving designers endless possibilities.

Proudly handcrafted in Crossville, Tennessee, Rural Retreat is an eco-friendly and sustainable option. With its Green Squared certification, the collection meets the highest standards for environmental responsibility. It also benefits from quick lead times, reducing transportation costs and ensuring a predictable pricing structure.
