A porcelain stoneware with a new and unprecedented dimension: a balanced hybrid of the typical components of concrete - its imperfect fragments - and elements of stone, with its streaks and parts of organic and fossil origin
The pure and substantial character of stone, the flaws that enhance its natural feel, a rich blend of colours that goes hand in hand with state-of-the-art design...
Galaxy stems from a study which has identified a range of highly contemporary colours that reflect the trends seen in recent years, where raw materials have been the source of inspiration for creating palettes with strong references to nature. Five contemporary colours that enhance a collection with a distinctly minimal and elegant character: cream, sand, olive, grey and dark, each directly connected to a specific NCS hue.
The precise references to the NCS system, acting as a counterpoint through the whole collection, are an invaluable tool for anyone making a choice of style, whether they wish to match the colour of the product or create a contrast with it.

A sophisticated and structured dialogue between stones and mosaics, a harmony of materials available for interiors in size 30.5x60.5, and rectified in sizes 30x60, 60x60, and 45x90.
A versatile, high technical: performance stone that comes in 2-cm-thick size 45x90, and size 60x60 Grip with anti-slip surface (R11), both rectified, making it perfectly suited to exteriors.
As we take a break from the frenzied pace of life, enfolded in scents and the soothing warmth of a relaxing experience, we still expect the elegance of warm, natural shades (Olive & Sand), along with the safety of the anti-slip surfaces of the size 60x60 Grip, the ideal solution for interiors requiring high technical performance.
The combination of red, green and blue echoes the coloured space we are used to seeing on our screens: a metaphysical space encapsulating millions of shades, in variations determined by their basic elements. Reinterpreted in a modern light and in line with current trends, the hues in this palette are matched to a colour scheme that completes the range through the warmest and most atmospheric shades of grey.
With Galaxy, even a short coffee break becomes a harmonious and relaxing experience thanks to the perfect combination of technical surfaces for outdoor spaces and the precious natural feel of the texture of this ceramic material. The possibility of creating perfectly coordinated and charming living spaces both inside and outside is yet another example of the strong personality of this range.
SEAMLESS CONTINUITY: A variety of solutions to meet the needs required by complex spaces, providing perfect continuity of colours and materials between indoor and outdoor spaces.
All together, the shades of beige and cream account for half a century of history of colour in ceramics. These tones are eternal, classic and timeless at the same time. Cream can be interpreted in countless ways and, as such, it is perfectly adaptable to contemporary tastes and trends, enabling combinations with colours and materials that produce different aesthetic results, like the wood-effect porcelain stoneware of Living Marrone 15x100.
" Warm and cozy accessories and complements, sometimes rustic, matched by the finest coverings, create a perfect and romantic space but with solid familiar taste".
The colour generally known as “taupe”, made up of grey and buttermilk, is very popular, although it would be better to make a distinction between taupe beige and taupe grey.
Taupe beige is more suited to traditional or country settings, while taupe grey is more suited to modern settings.
Taupe is a neutral colour that goes well with similarly neutral and natural colours in the hues of earth and sand, including every shade of brown, grey, black, and all the variations of off-white, like buttermilk, ivory, ecru, butter yellow, milk white and beige.
Yet, precisely because taupe grey is neutral, it can also be combined to great effect with bright colours like yellow, orange, green and purple, lending a note of vibrancy and fun to the home.
The pure and substantial character of stone is preserved and enhances the ceramic material with textures rich in natural suggestions. The pleasure of coming home to spaces full of personality and sophisticated details is intensified by Galaxy Dark, whose versatility makes it especially suited to interesting combinations with diverse materials and products.
A sophisticated taste for the East, with its fragrances and colours, creates a vivid contrast with the reassuring range of the more neutral shades of grey. Cumin, cinnamon, cardamom and poppy seeds are just some of the inspirations for this palette, which is otherwise rigorous and elegant in its contemporary grey hues.
The skillful harmonization of binding agents made from different types of stone, the natural coarseness of limestone concrete and the authentic feel of its natural flaws combine perfectly with modern spaces in minimal style, characterized by pale and neutral tones that mirror the basic shades of Galaxy Grey.
The minimalist look is all about creating a practical and resolute mood. It is no surprise that this trend looks great in homes that opt for simplicity and shy away from anything that is not absolutely necessary. Furniture is in the focus and stands out for its severe looks. The lines are pure; the shapes and colours are simple.
WHAT IS THE BEST CHOICE OF WALL AND FLOOR COVERINGS?: Cement-effect porcelain stoneware has steered a new course in architectural concepts: simplicity meets an urban spirit, and ceramics express a new and unusual style diktat. The minimalist look is an ideal solution for smaller rooms too.
