In the Netherlands, a ‘brown café’ is an informal, old-school bar that serves alcohol. It’s a retro place, but not in a knowing, stylised way – more by its very nature. The interior has dark wood, low lighting and rows of bottles along the wall behind the counter. It’s where you’d expect to find tiled panelling, like this. Look more closely, though, and you’ll see that the 3D Relief tiles give this design a modern twist. Choose one of our suggested colour combinations or create your own for a thoroughly modern brown café.
