Organic design with a natural inspiration, using Casalgrande Padana porcelain stoneware tiles
Natural elements have always been a source of creative inspiration, shaping not only a furnishing trend, but indeed a whole lifestyle.
Featuring leaves, branches, trees, and flowers, stylised or otherwise, on fabrics and wall coverings, and perfect in any setting, plant-inspired patterns are a key decorative element for living spaces and the star feature in organic style.
In its latest guise, this style features a palette of earthy shades, from beige and soft, velvety-smooth greys through to sage and green tones that blend into dynamic, confident colour schemes. The ingredients that make up this organic style include natural materials and fibres such as wood, cane, bamboo, linen, cotton and jute. Organic design is also based on the same imperfect, shifting shapes found in nature, and on elements that come straight from the earth, such as sand, limestone and clay.
Clay in particular, known to us since ancient times for its thermal and non-toxic qualities and fired to make bricks or ceramic tiles in porcelain stoneware, is perfect for this type of style in the form of flooring or wall tiles for both indoors and outdoors. For an organic furnishing style, Casalgrande Padana suggests the original collection Limpha, the wood-effect collections, and the new Nature collection.
Limpha, the wall tile that purifies the air
The Limpha collection of porcelain stoneware tiles takes its inspiration from climbing plants, turning wall coverings into an element of natural beauty. Available in four different versions (Arborea, Coral Rose, Helix and Gelsomino), in a single large 120x240 cm size with a thickness of 6.5 mm, it’s the ideal solution to bring a strikingly original touch to living spaces.
Limpha also belongs to the new generation of bioactive Bios Ceramics: an innovative technology that can be applied on request, for antibacterial, self-cleaning tiles that combat polluting agents. Specifically, on façade coverings and ventilated building envelopes, Bios Self-Cleaning® eliminates NOx (nitrogen oxides, among the main pollutants in the urban environment) and cuts cleaning operations, because the superhydrophilic coating is able to break down the organic substances and pollutants that settle on the tiles. So these decorative tiles not only embellish the home: they also help improve air quality by cutting pollution.
All the warmth and natural beauty of wood-effect porcelain stoneware
If you’re looking for an organic furnishing style, opt for wood-effect tiles , which combine the beauty of wooden boards (gnarls, marks, and warm tones) with the technical qualities of hard-wearing porcelain stoneware.
Casalgrande Padana’s wood-effect porcelain stoneware collections are composed of plank tiles in different sizes (11x90 cm, 15x90 cm, 20x120 cm, 22.5x90 cm, 22.5x189 cm, 25x151 cm, and 40x120 cm), in which the beauty of diversity offers new forms of expression. Casalgrande Padana’s wood-style porcelain stoneware strip tiles are ideal for coverings and flooring throughout the home, from kitchens and bathrooms to living rooms and bedrooms. Thanks to the 20 mm anti-slip surface, a seamless indoor-to-outdoor look can be created.
A perfect combination of colour and design redefines the concept of surfaces in beautiful, natural wood, in an impressive variety of rare versions from all over the world.
Nature: engaging, earthy tones for porcelain stoneware tiles
A warm, engaging range that recalls the natural vibrations of the earth and its elements, in six different shades (Argilla, Calce, Creta, Lava, Sabbia and Terra) and six different sizes, with natural and lapped surfaces (in the new Silk version) for indoors and an anti-slip surface for outdoors. A palette of richly resounding shades, a pleasure to experience in the design of comfortable, regenerating living spaces.
