Indoor tile 9CENTO ALBA ORO

wallfloorporcelain stoneware

Tales from the Villas Ceramiche Keope presents the porcelain stoneware 9Cento collection, a line of marble varieties and stones inspired by early 20th Century European modernist architecture with new fascinating meanings in contemporary contexts. The 9Cento series boasts an original palette of 6 chromatic variants which bring to mind the luxurious atmospheres of modern villas at the turn of the last Century. Modern-day eclecticism plays with combinations of materials, colours and reinterpretations of the past and makes the marble variants extremely fashionable with cross-contaminations from the various origins and fashions of the time. Expressive research and technical finesse are reunited in all six sizes of 9Cento - all of which measure 120 cm along the side, with the exception of the smallest size, the 60x60 cm square. The large slab, 6 mm in thickness, combines technical strength and aesthetic superiority in a size which beautifully presents the unpredictable textures of the ceramic marble surfaces. Beneath a perfect lapped finishing, the rigorous design welcomes the unexpectedness of the natural signs in the 5 marble varieties which then blend together to form a further Palladian decorative variant: Alba Oro An Italian Calacatta that is particularly romantic and steeped in ancient memories. Its veins, sometimes fine and sometimes coarse, extend like golden branches tinged with powder pink or orange pigments, in a pattern that never repeats itself.
