Surfaces that speak

Contaminations, patterns and material accents: ceramics return to the design in a strongly decorative key.

Lines by storagemilano for Ceramica Bardelli Lines, born from the contrast between the rough surface of the cement and the worked surface of the metal, between poor but refined material. The concrete effect porcelain stoneware collection for floors and walls is available in two surface versions: flat or three-dimensional brick effect, enriched by the insert of brass rods. Thanks to the modularity of the rectified sizes 60x60 cm and 60x120 cm, it guarantees innumerable laying patterns, always different, and the application of the modules arranged next to each other generate a design that can change or adapt according to the space that welcomes. The collection is offered in three colored families: light gray, anthracite, mud.

Type: gres
SIzes: 60x60 cm, 60x120 cm, thickness 9.8 mm - ground
Surface: opaque no reflex
Colours: 3 shades of color (gray, mud, black) available both in the flat version and in the 3D brick version with or without insertion of brass metal rod
Designer: storagemilano

Relate of Ceramiche Caesar S.p.A. Relate arises from the meeting of two surface looks. The first, Brush, means that the ceramic technique reinterprets itself. The microlavorations of brushing define the product and enhance its minimal soul. The iridescent surface gives sinuosity of movement and the elegance of the ceramic product which, presented in 5 colors, is smooth to the touch. The second look of the collection, Flame, is instead characterized by dynamic colors. Defined in eight colors, Flame is available in the Moss, Reef and Blaze colors.

Type: gres
Sizes (cm): 30x30; 30x60; 60x60; 60x120; 119.5x119.5 Project Evolution; 119.5x278 Project Evolution
Surface finish: natural
Range: Ice, Wind, Trail, Land, Noir for the Brush collection; Blizzard, Veil, Crag, Mine, Tide, Reef, Moss, Blaze for the Flame collection

My Decor of Ceramica Sant’Agostino In the My Decor collection, decorations and graphics - tailor-made - become an integral part of the architecture itself and redefine the project itself. It follows an absolute creative freedom in the choice of the decoration and in dimensioning it and adapting it to the space in a personalized way. My Decor exploits the precision and flexibility of Digital Technology, an innovative printing system that allows you to reproduce an unlimited number of graphics on the ceramic support.

Material: double-fired white paste
Intended use: coating

Hyper of Flaviker Hyper, the new Flaviker collection, is inspired by the concrete blocks used in industrial construction. The aesthetics of cement is a trend that transversely crosses contemporary architecture and design, and Hyper interprets all the signs of the natural aging process of the material intact. Through the most innovative digital technologies, Hyper surfaces are accurately reproduced cracks, holes and stains typical of living cements, with a particular 3D graphic characterization. The three colors of the Hyper range respect the shades that the cement takes during the passage of time. HYPER also has a collaboration with the Tattoo & Visual artist Tiziano Colella, who has signed the "Titti 4 Flaviker" collection and mixes the techniques of making murals with the old school tattoo iconography.

Dream of Fondovalle With this project, Fondovalle creates a wall covering collection suitable for multiple furnishing solutions: bathrooms, living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms. Dream is inspired by the natural fiber of linen, one of the oldest textile fibers in the world, and proposes it in a fine texture in three pastel colors. The collection has been enriched by two natural landscapes and can be placed individually, in two pieces, three or more to create a wallpaper effect.

Acquerello of Made +39 A collection transferring the colour palette of watercolour painting onto 30x30 cm tiles. Acquerello features subtle hues of porcelain, creating a new delicacy for materials featuring decorations that go naturally with backgrounds in basic colours to create a graceful combination of hues.

Charisma of Monocibec The Charisma project was born from the stylistic research that Monocibec addresses to the world of stone materials, for the development of textures and colors. A versatile product, ideneo in residential, commercial and public contexts, through the two finishes in the range, natural and lapped. Natural charisma remembers the stone floors made with artisanal techniques while Charisma lappata, thanks to the particular effect obtained by the treatment of lapping on the ridge, has an antiqued surface that bears the signs of its use

Type of production: fine porcelain stoneware
Colors: Dakota; Luxor; Trend; Rocky; Imperial
Sizes: 120 x 120 (excluding Rocky); 80 x 160; 80 x 80; 60 x 120; 60 x 60; 30 x 60 cm natural surface, rectified edge; 60 x 60 cm lapped surface, rectified edge
Use: residential and light commercial

Used widely in recent years, especial­ly in literary criticism, the term ‘max­imalism’ has also recently been adopt­ed to identify the search for “aesthet­ic implementation” contained in the new decorative languages of design and interior design. This distinction from the tradition­al minimalism of monochrome sur­faces and neutral colours character­ised, for example, the atmosphere of Cersaie 2018. 

Taking inspiration from a range of glazes designed by Ettore Sottsass for Cedit, the Cromatica collection by Formafantasma Studio combines various technologies to achieve new tonalities and nuances. In a similar way, Lines by Ceramica Bardelli high­lights the use of special no reflex glazes, that generate a sharp contrast between the rough surface of cement and the more refined one of metal. Relate by Caesar also plays on varia­tions of brushed effects (Brush) and colours (Flame), while Tube, by Imo­la Ceramic, provides metallic vibra­tions that conjure up metropolitan landscapes. 
The heightened use of material decoration also characterises three proposals that work around the aes­thetics of cement: Moon by Leonardo and Even by Panaria propose surfac­es with a soft appearance that has a pleasant feel, while Hyper, by Flavik­er, is inspired by blocks of industrial concrete, digitally reproducing a particular 3D graphic characteriza­tion.

Alongside the “material deco­ration’ there is an area of research that works instead on design and rhythm. Sospiri by Vallelunga, for example, uses delicate colours of Ne­ro and Avio, that bring a strong con­trast to the embroidered patterns of the surfaces. Other proposals accen­tuate the decorative potential of dig­ital printing: My Decor by Ceramica Sant’Agostino exploits a technolog­ical development that makes it pos­sible to go beyond the repetition of traditional production techniques; while the ‘cold” technology adopted for Liquida by Ceramica Fioranese achieves original results in terms of the resolution and colours of the pat­terns. Ceramica Fondovalle plays on the theme with oneiric gradations and the large format tiles of Dream weave together the pattern of linen and suggestions of natural land­scapes, interpreting a fine-looking linen with a fine texture in three pas­tel colors. Finally, taking inspiration from watercolours, Acquerello Made+39 brings to porcelain stone­ware the delicacy and richness of colour typical of paintings.
