National Tiles, a leading Australian tile and stone supplier, uses its showroom experience to help customers confidently choose surfaces by seeing and comparing materials in realistic settings. With Casambi-controlled tunable white lighting, staff can easily shift colour temperatures from cool daylight to warm residential tones, allowing customers to understand how tiles and stone will look in different environments. The flexible wireless system also simplifies daily showroom updates, enhances product displays, and keeps the space easy to manage as collections and layouts evolve.
National Tiles is a leading Australian tile and stone supplier, established in 1979, with a strong focus on helping customers make confident, informed decisions when selecting surfaces for their homes and projects. The showroom experience plays a key role in this process, where customers are invited to see, touch, and understand how different materials will look in real environments before they make a final choice.
Lighting is central to this experience. Because tiles and stone can change significantly depending on light, the ability to accurately simulate different home conditions became essential. The lighting needed to be flexible enough to support frequent product changes across the showroom, while also helping customers visualise how finishes would appear in their own spaces.
Tunable white lighting controlled via Casambi was introduced to meet this need. It allows showroom staff to adjust colour temperature easily, shifting the environment from cooler daylight tones to warmer residential settings. This helps customers better understand how materials will behave in different lighting conditions, making the selection process more intuitive and realistic.
Casambi also brings simplicity and flexibility to day-to-day operations. With wireless control and intuitive app-based management, retail staff can quickly adjust lighting scenes without technical knowledge. This is especially important in a showroom that is regularly updated with new product displays and layouts.
Gallery and scene functions were also introduced to group different display zones, making it easy to highlight specific collections or reconfigure the showroom atmosphere as needed. This ensures the lighting always supports the latest product presentation without requiring changes to the underlying system.
At National Tiles, lighting is not just about visibility. It is a practical tool that supports customer decision-making, enhances product presentation, and adapts effortlessly to a constantly evolving retail environment. With Casambi providing flexible and reliable control, the showroom remains responsive, accurate, and easy to manage for staff and customers alike.
