CERACASA BRINGS FORWARD THE INNOVATION AND THE DESIGN THAT WILL BE SEEN IN 2012


One of the defining characteristics of CERACASA CERAMICA is its constant innovative contribution in all collections and solutions launched to the international market. The proposals presented at the international CERSAIE fair confirm this.


The brand CERACASA has developed unique products worldwide that are the gold standard in modern architecture. In the Italian fair different solutions have met, like EMOTILE (customized ceramics), BIONICTILE (decontaminating ceramics), FLASHTILE (luminescent ceramics) and latest invention ECOM4TILE (ceramic which saves energy) awarded an ALFA prize in Cevisama trade fair and recently awarded the gold medal for most innovative product at the notorious "Architectural Products" awards in America.

NEW TRENDS IN WALL TILES. NEW COLOURS

The trends for 2012 are based on the subtlety of texture, softness and natural colours. 
Sober decorations for markets that require little ornaments and elegant designs with pearly decorations, metallic finishes or surface shiny or matt mixtures for the busiest tastes.
Brightness is the strongest trend in the coming months. Similarly, imitation of worn wallpapers and the excessive combination of textures and special pieces will be fond very strongly.


According to these trends CERACASA introduces the following collections: CUARCITA, a non-structured gloss and satin stone, DITREVI elegant and functional, VINTAGE a spectacular wallpaper with worn backgrounds and MADREPERLA an original texture drawn from marine shells, with mixtures of colours and subtle glows.

THE NEW ERA OF THE "EMPEROR"

The polished high gloss from CERACASA continues to increase and the proposal for next season are a beautiful four-color Emperor stone of great warmth and a semiprecious stone, onyx, as is the DUCALE also available in four colors that can be combined.
Both proposals in a 47x47 cm rect format that offers great aesthetic potential in any occasion.

TAU Group’s S3 CREATES “ONNES”, THE MEDITERRANEAN URBAN TERRACE


Through the combined efforts of S3 TAU and Carmen Baselga_Studio workshop, a new concept of URBAN TERRACE has been born, pushing forward the development of integrated solutions for public and private urban spaces.

S3 TAU created this product to solve the problems created by uneven and irregular surfaces, thus allowing the utilization of urban spaces and terraces previously unusable or only usable with considerable difficulty. Also incorporated within the product is CIVIS’ TERMIA technology, permitting the creation of heated outdoor spaces.

This outdoor environment is completed not only by tables whose touch sensitive ceramic surface allows one to, amongst other things, keep plates warm or call the waiter simply by touching the table surface; but also through the integration of vegetation into the environment, both vertically and via covered surfaces.

Thanks to the advantages provided by the S3 TAU WAYTEC SYSTEM, specialists in environmental design will be able to create urban terraces and rooftop areas that are eminently usable, warm and comfortable, as well as aesthetically pleasing.

The TAU Group’s S3 – Smart Surface Systems – division specialises in using innovative solutions for the living environment to improve quality of life. These solutions are developed based upon the premises of Design for All or People-Oriented Design, so that the user is a key part of all projects
