Can slate tiles, or something that looks like them, be used (over a concrete slab, of course) for the floor of an attached, or basement, garage?

As some of you know, I am designing a house that I would like to build but likely never will. As a hobby it has helped me cope with depression and lockdowns.

Anyhow, I don’t really like the automotive look of most well-dressed garages but do want the garage to be kind of nice, like a part of the interior of the home. I think rustic, somewhat Colonial / early American, paneled, exposed beams, spacious and well lit is the way to go.

I really like colourful slate tile flooring—colours, textures, and patterns—but assume regular auto movement would tear it up.

I know that many materials can be finished with epoxy for easy maintenance and clean-up and perhaps durability. How can such a floor be done?
