By any measure, the ancient city of Babylon was one of the most consequential in recorded history. Founded over 4,000

years ago on the Euphrates river in present-day Iraq, Babylon was once believed to be the world¡¯s largest city, filled with

architectural and design wonders, including the legendary Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the

Ancient World.

Today, Mediterranea brings this architectural tradition to life in its latest porcelain tile series, BABYLON. Manufactured in the

USA with exacting standards for color and tone, the Babylon series perfectly captures the colors and Middle Eastern heritage

of this legendary location. Mediterranea¡¯s exclusive Dynamic HD Imaging technology brings to life the unique stones of the

region, which blend together in a 12¡±x12¡± tile format to create a superb design concept.

Paired with BABYLON is a decorative design companion that further brings the heritage of the region to life - a set of 6

unique deco tiles called ISHTAR. Named after the historic Gates of Ishtar, these decorative tiles feature rich gold and blue

accents, and are modeled after actual designs unearthed over the past two centuries by archaeologists. The latest technology

produces random graphic backgrounds for an ideal mix when installed. ISHTAR decos can be used either as accents, or as

its own field tile to create a totally original design concept, unique for its beauty and elegance.

The BABYLON series recognizes this historic part of the world as one of the enduring landmarks of history. Today, its legacy

continues - as the latest design triumph by Mediterranea.
