25 best ceramic facade cladding manufacturers
Ceramic facade cladding has become a favorite among architects and designers for its combination of aesthetic appeal, functionality, and long-term durability. Beyond its visual versatility, ceramic cladding offers significant benefits for buildings. It's a sustainable choice due to its natural materials and energy-efficient production process, contributing to reduced environmental impact. Additionally, its excellent insulation properties help improve a building's energy efficiency, lowering heating and cooling costs. Ceramic cladding is also resistant to weather, fire, and corrosion, making it a cost-effective solution with minimal maintenance requirements over time.

Sculptural ceramic volumes integrate new apartment building by Archea Associati into its Lake Maggiore context
On the banks of Lake Maggiore and a site once occupied by the headquarters of the ceramic company Pozzi-Gino, this new housing project by Archea Associati references its site history and surrounding urban fabric with a concept featuring chequerboard patterns, courtyard formations, and striking volumes clad with fragmented blue-ceramic tile.
Pietro Savorelli
The project comprises a total of four different volumes. All the buildings differ in their volumetric arrangement with faceted and bent profiles that transform building volumes into sculptural elements.
Pietro Savorelli
The apartment forms create an urban ambiance of two scales, one that is expansive and open towards the lake, and the other more intimate and corre... More

BALANCE
Balance captures the true urban sphere and renews the industrial style. The result is the sum of several inspirations in cement, a contemporary symbol of current trends.
This collection, in a search for places to live and grow, puts a new spin between the balance of a ceramic collection and the minimalist style.
One of its main characteristics is the differentiation it can offer, since the surface reflects distinctive features and a graphic intensity with fluidity and movement.

ALM | Domestic Jungle Apt
Two levels for a young family of four: the project has been an opportunity to experiment with new combinations of materials, colours and textures, creating different scenarios within the same apartment.
The reuse and refurbishment of the large space of the attic allowed to experience an unconventional layout with the living area extended on two levels: on the lower level a cosy and spacious entrance area in continuity with dining area and kitchen; on the upper level a large living area characterised by sloped ceilings and a large terrace.
The lower floor plays on the presence of greenery, real and illusory: in front of the entrance a large wall covered with a "palm jungle" motif wallpaper, by Cole&Son, hides the door towards the sleep... More

Mels Brushes Store
With the demand to design a fragrance store by Mels Brushes, the office of Estúdio Mineral, together with Plante Comigo, proposes the LOJA ESSÊNCIA. To create the concept of the project, a path was taken to articulate and to develop an understanding of the word essence, which comes from the perfumery sector, but also is often used in an architectural context.
By integrating the foundations of contemporary architecture – the natural and the artificial - the whole project highlights their duality, while also maintaining their distinct and contrasting coexistence. On one hand, natural ceramics are used to emphasize organic characteristics, beckoning towards earth, raw brick and the powerful craft work of pottery throw... More

Eleven Tourist Apartments And Two Shops
This work has consisted of completely rehabilitating a building in the center of Seville to turn it into a building of tourist apartments and shops. The building was the historic headquarters of Almacenes Arias, traditional weaving shop of the capital of Seville, on the pedestrian and commercial street Puente y Pellón. During its history it underwent different renovations, some due to the fire that took place in the year 75, being a heterogeneous construction materially and structurally. It is decided to replace a large part of the structure due to its poor condition and the intervention is used to empty and make a large semicircular patio that allows the appearance of interior apartments. Given the irregularity of the place and the need t... More

FF-K 30/R300 - Ventilated Facade Elements
FS system, vertical joint on facades. Its placing, with a wider perpend, fairly marks the horizontality of the pieces. This system has a special aluminium clamp that holds the piece and links it to the structure. When installing it, we will constantly check weights and levels. We fix the brackets to the structure with a mechanical anchor, and to the wall using a chemical anchor. The anchors will be the most suitable according to the quality of the wall. We fix the vertical profile to the brackets with steel rivets, so it allows the dilation of the aluminium. To do this, we rivet a fixed point above and the following with mobile points. Always following the same installation pattern, if, for example, we start right to left, we would fix the... More
