Stylish living rooms with porcelain stoneware

Stylish living rooms with porcelain stoneware

When renovating the living room area, how can we be sure of choosing the right floor and wall coverings, given the huge variety of possible options, textures and colours, to team style and design with practical appeal and comfort? No problem: here we have a few ideas to inspire you.

Cotto-style flooring

The elegant cotto-effect stoneware of the Tuscany collection is able to bring an inimitable touch of beauty and warmth to the living area.

Available in the 20.3x40.6 size, the series comes in both brick red and sophisticated shades of grey – such as Pienza, in the photo – able to adapt perfectly to both classic and more modern, industrial styles.

Tip: the ceramics used for the floors and walls of residential and public settings are given a stylish, colourful twist thanks to the Giotto decoration of the Tuscany cotto-effect stoneware collection. Floral patterns and sophisticated arabesques bring a touch of dynamism to the surface of the 20.3x20.3 tiles, made even more unique by the highly decorative impact of the vibrant brushstrokes of blue, gold, yellow and orange.

The allure of stone

Minimalism and cool beauty are the hallmarks of the stone effect, one of the main trends in interior design.

Delightfully simple and impressively hard wearing, natural stone is a priceless source of inspiration in contemporary architecture, and the heart of our Ardesie collection. Created in simple, beautifully pure colours, including White, in the photo, this floor and wall covering series brings a prestigious, inviting twist to slate, featuring its iconic veining effects on sophisticated surfaces with an original look every time.

Tip: to avoid monotony, add some elements in a contrasting colour, able to enliven the rigorous look of the stone. In the photo, for example, the brick-look wall covering Tribeca has been chosen, in the Multicolor mix.

3D Walls

The name of the collection says it all: Wall Art offers a faithful reproduction of country-style wood, turning it into an elegant, relief wall covering with an artistic impact guaranteed.

Available in the 15x61 size and in four different colours – Ice, in the photo, Greige, Taupe and Sand –, this series is the ideal solution for dividing walls, or the wall with the hearth, instantly giving your living room a whole new look.

Tip: team three-dimensional wall coverings with tiles with a more linear design, such as the concrete-effect Icon Black on the floor in the photo, to create a truly irresistible material contrast that will bring out all the beauty of the walls.

 

Contrasting colours

The wood effect never lies, and will never let you down. Sophisticated, timeless and tremendously elegant, parquet-effect porcelain stoneware is an ideal solution for the living room and other areas: warm, comfortable and extremely practical, three qualities evident in our new Aspen.
The collection, shown in the photo in the two sizes 15x100 and 20.5x100 and in the colour Beige, is able to bring a bright, dynamic touch to the room, teaming the stylish appeal of wood with the technical advantages of porcelain stoneware, which is easy to clean, waterproof and does not alter over time.

Tip: the shades of the wood-effect coverings, especially the more neutral ones, are perfect for teaming with striking wall covering and furnishing accessory colours, such as the pastel shades in the photo, for an end result that’s audacious without being overpowering, as well as original and highly sophisticated.
