About Us
Welcome
THE DESIRE GROUP is a luxury brand featuring premier handmade cement tile. Desire was born to preserve and celebrate the art of the cement tile.
WE ARE OBSESSIVE! Color... design... surface... finish... every detail matters! Our life long dedication results in technically superior tile. Always gorgeous, our tile is fade & stain-resistant, and easier to install & maintain.Beware, NOT ALL CEMENT TILE IS CREATED EQUAL.
Over the years, we added complementary product offerings. Every curated product represents a life story: sometimes a person, a family, always a tradition that is as much a part of the creator as the hands that make it. When you make something, you leave part of yourself in it. We live in a world where things are mass produced-this is not necessarily wrong-but handmade products embrace human potential-always one-of-kind. All of the DESIRE goods bring love and light to both their end user and their creator. Every product is organic, handmade, recycled or upcycled.

PASSION PROJECT
In 2006, Kirsten Carabin and her team of artisans built a manufacturing facility in South Vietnam with the capacity to produce 240,000 SF of cement tiles annually. Together they committed to producing the best-in-business, quality tiles with on-time delivery and fair pricing. After perfecting their manufacturing process, Desire Tile Cement developed and introduced a one-of-a-kind tile using inlayed marble and semi-precious stones such as Mother of Pearl, which delivered a new luxury to an ancient flooring product developed in the 13th century.
Desire Cement Tiles was heralded as a trend setter: on the edge and ahead of the curve at the annual national Covering Tile and is member U.S. Green Council, which is committed to environmental sustainability and consistently maintains strict quality control standards.
