Hi..the flooring looks great..but I thought Cirrus was such a more pronounced grey...I would like to do it in my home..bur concerned about it being overwhelming and dark..it looks so much lighter here..it almost looks light Nix..is it maybe the lighting? or lighter grout?

    Hi Robin, thank you for your question! Lighting definitely plays a huge role in how the colors in the tile will show in your home. In this particular photo, I would agree that the Cirrus tile appears less grey than it does in person. If you haven't done so already, similar to testing out paint samples, I would recommend getting a box or two of the Cirrus tile and place a few planks in the different areas around your home that you are wanting it in to see how it looks with your home's lighting.


    Unfortunately, I don't have any other examples with the Cirrus other than this job, however, The Aequa series from Arizona Tile is very popular with our clients. Specifically, Aequa Tur has been used in several of our projects. Please see the links I have provided below. Hopefully this helps. :)

    Thank you for answering my question...I originally picked the TUR but it seemed almost too warm /beige/yellow in some lighting and I am going for a more cool tone..My home is a new construction and my choice has to be made before they break ground, so I am a little nervous...What about the Nix color in that series? is that maybe too light?

    Okay I see. If you're going for cool tones, I would say the Cirrus tile would be a great choice! Based on our experience, we wouldn't consider it too dark of a color. The Nix is another great choice, but it is very light.


    This may be how you found us, but if you type in "Aequa Nix" or Aequa Cirrus" into the houzz search bar, you can see other great examples of both of these tiles being used in different spaces and lighting that can hopefully help!
