Spotlight on the material with surfaces drawn by nature and the random repetition of an irregular mark that becomes a décor describing a refined texture, which hints at terrazzo floorings. Macro is the collection that gives grit flooring a contemporary twist, associating it with the excellent performance of Casalgrande Padana porcelain stoneware tiles.
The charm of a Venetian seminato or terrazzo flooring, the atmosphere in which a grit flooring is synonymous with home, the polished surface that emphasised the contrast between irregular elements and the rigorous geometry of the rooms, and the unique ability of a material to add a contemporary touch to all this. Casalgrande Padana presents Macro, the collection of porcelain stoneware tiles that recreates a random and irregular theme on elegant, high-performance surfaces. With Macro, it’s the material itself that takes centre stage to become a décor, an image resulting from the combination of stones and pebbles, irregular pieces of a dynamic puzzle that adds an elegant touch to the room. A collection that defines a continuous surface, almost eliminating the borders of the tiles, thereby developing a seamless image, like a natural carpet that spreads from the floor to the walls. Macro expresses the desire to penetrate the very essence of the material, exploding its parts to magnify them, and analyse the whole as a combination of individual units. This collection leaves a distinctive mark in any room, creating a dialogue with neutral and even surfaces and with the texture of the other materials that compose the space.
Macro is a reinterpretation of a natural mosaic made with pieces of different sizes that find their position within the perimeter of the tile to create an elegant and sophisticated set. Big tiles, small tiles, portions in which the grit is more concentrated alternating with others where it’s less dense. All this without neglecting the importance of the shades, which, in some cases, enhance the contrasts and, in others, make the hue appear even more homogeneous.
This collection is perfect for residential use but creates a warm atmosphere in any setting, including hotel lobbies, shops, retail spaces, restaurants, and eateries.
Moro, Bianco, Carnico, and Grigio are the four variants available, all with a glossy finish to emphasise the overall image of the surface and many shade variations.
Macro is available in sizes ranging from 59x59 cm to 118x236 cm. The larger tiles emphasise the virtuous contrast between their size and the small elements that compose them.
