Flexible Architecture

The encounter between Philippe Starck and Ceramica Sant’Agostino gives birth to Flexible Architecture: a slow, product, able to overcome undamaged the wear of time.

With Flexible Architecture the tile abandons its traditional function of decorative covering and stands out as an integral part of architecture.

The joint, which until today represented something to hide and eliminate, with this collection takes up a new different, material and physical feature by becoming itself a modular decorative element.

The series wants to be a real architectonic system that, thanks to the wide combination of different thickness, surfaces, joints, finishes and colours offers the designer endless composition possibilities.

The joints, now an integrant part of the tile system, can be on four sides or on one side, on two sides or on no side at all. The different colours, all in plain shade, can be combined with the two finishes – one in matt effect (silky) and the other one with glossy effect (liquid). Finally the product thickness, 8 mm for the three-dimensional joint and 12 mm for the structural surface, realized in two specific surface typologies – one surface rocky, substantial, rough, almost archaic and the other one slightly wavy, recalling the precious handmade Italian ceramics – give a vaste range of combinations.
