CALACATTA MONET
Marble-style porcelain tiles collection inspired by the famous Calacatta Monet marble, originally from the Apuan Alps in Italy. The natural marble is extracted from a single quarry that produces large blocks in very limited quantities and is highly regarded in the world of interior design. Therefore, its reproduction on porcelain surfaces is of exceptional interest as it multiplies the possibilities for decorative applications that allow us to enjoy its elegance while accentuating its natural beauty and luxury.
It is characterized by a light background, slightly warm and almost creamy in some areas, with a rich level of detail in its abundant crystallizations and subtle natural watercolor effects. This contrasts with the dark veins, featuring subtle shades of purples and ochres, running across the surface, creating a unique and sophisticated look.
The exquisite beauty of Calacatta Monet lies in its vein pattern, which can vary in intensity and shape. For its incorporation into this porcelain tile collection, the veins have been enhanced using digital materials in various intensities. This involves applying them with the utmost smoothness on the backgrounds and carefully intensifying them in the vein details, imparting an exclusive character to each piece.
The base of Calacatta Monet is complemented by a relief decoration that generates a vertical surface undulation, featuring a pattern of smooth curves composed of ridges and valleys inspired by the natural effect of sand dunes. This aesthetic continuity creates an endless texture, resulting in a dynamic visual effect where light and shadow interact to accentuate the beauty and depth of the design.
