Braun's Brush Tile brings a new depth to building resources...

Born from a knowledge of brush manufacturing, the Brush Tile has its underpinnings from generations of the Braun Brush Company, a business creating brushes for home and industrial use. The programming of the tiles is based upon using actual brush making equipment, repurposed and retooled to create its application as a tile. The Brush Tile could, in effect, be considered a melding of infinite brush fibres to emerge as a field of fibre.
