Autex Acoustics MirageTM Textured Tiles Specification Guide

Transform your space into a tactile landscape with MirageTM Textured Tiles, an intricately textured acoustic tile range designed to create a sensory experience. The six refined designs bring depth, sophistication, and a sense of movement to any interior design. Presented in a modular tile format, it features a refined beveled edge and a curated color palette. Mirage invites users to feel the delicately etched details up close or step back and enjoy its elegance as a piece of acoustic art.

Space and Size

Dimensions

Tile Size: 11.5" x 11.5" (292mm x 292mm)

Thickness: 3/8" (9mm)

All tiles have a 45-degree beveled edge. Texture wraps around beveled edges for a seamless continuity of texture. Peel-and-stick adhesive backing is pre-applied on the back of the tiles.

See layouts page for added detail and options.

Connection: Peel-and-stick. All tiles come with pre-applied Peel-and-stick adhesive backing as standard.

Styles

Mirage Textured Tiles are available in six refined designs:

• Aodamo
• Cambium
• Calacatta
• Terrazzo
• Loom
• Grasscloth

Aodamo

Aodamo has a dominant grain direction which runs diagonally across each tile. It has a single full-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. There is more flexibility to install tile patterns as desired.

Suggested Layouts for Aodamo

• Aligned: [32 tiles per box]
• Herringbone: [32 tiles per box]
• Checker: [32 tiles per box]

Cambium

Cambium has a subtle grain direction which runs vertically across each tile. It has a single-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. There is more flexibility to install tile patterns as desired.

Suggested Layouts for Cambium

• Horizontal: [32 tiles per box]
• Vertical: [32 tiles per box]
• Checker: [32 tiles per box]

Calacatta

Calacatta has a subtle grain direction which runs diagonally across each tile. It has a single-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. There is more flexibility to install tile patterns as desired.

Suggested Layouts for Calacatta

• Aligned: [32 tiles per box]
• Herringbone: [32 tiles per box]
• Checker: [32 tiles per box]

Terrazzo

Terrazzo has a random texture direction across each tile. It has a single-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. Tiles can be arranged at the installer's discretion, creating a randomized effect.

Suggested Layouts for Terrazzo

• Randomized: [32 tiles per box]

Loom

Loom has a random texture direction across each tile. It has a single-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. Tiles can be arranged at the installer's discretion, creating a randomized effect.

Suggested Layouts for Loom

• Randomized: [32 tiles per box]

Grasscloth

Grasscloth has a dominant grain direction which runs vertically across each tile. It has a single-sheet design, which is cut into tiles, meaning there is slight variation of design between each tile within one box. There is more flexibility to install tile patterns as desired.

Suggested Layouts for Grasscloth

• Horizontal: [32 tiles per box]
• Vertical: [32 tiles per box]
• Checker: [32 tiles per box]

Detail Considerations

Trimming Tile

Autex Acoustics tiles can be cut on-site if required. We recommend using a snap-blade knife and straight edge. ?

Power Outlets and Light Switches

Measure and cut out where the outlet would sit on the tile. Apply the tile to the substrate and secure the outlet through the tile. ?

Internal Corners

We recommend a simple lap-join install. If the opposite end of your tiled wall has an exposed edge, we recommend starting the install from that end, and cutting the final tile to fit into this lap join. ?

External Corners

Tile edges can be aligned to the wall edge when installed. We recommend this treatment for both walls in a wrap-around detail. ?

For further installation details, please refer to the Mirage Tiles Installation Guide.

Color

Mirage Textured Tiles are available in a curated range of Cube colors:

• Opera
• Terrace
• Canyon
• Cavalier
• Caspian
• Tree House
