Italian Monitillo 1980 company, located in the heart of Puglia in the Murgia hills, has sent us the following press release about its new collection:
Among the coating proposals is the “Walls&Floors“ Collection, designed by internationally renowned architects including Claesson Koivisto Rune, Defne Koz + Marco Susani, Emmanuel Gallina, Andrea Maffei, and Chapman Taylor. These sophisticated architectural extensions follow the morphology of walls and floors, creating volume and movement on surfaces, and enhancing the beauty and purity of the raw material.
PROFONDO. Design: Defne Koz + Marco Susani. Profondo stands out for the soft and sinuous lines of its elements. Its design includes four different graphics, to be combined creatively according to needs: from a denser and more regular pattern to lighter compositions. Profondo is worked “with splits or grooves” that give softness to the hardness of marble, creating a tactile experience for the user.
MAREA. Design: Chapman Taylor. Bold geometries, straight and oblique lines for an elegant and dynamic effect. With the Marea series, marble fills with vital traces, featuring a modern design complemented by metallic materials for even more light and mobility.
PUNTO. Design: Andrea Maffei. Punto integrates the marble surface with circular metal elements. Real metal points coexist on a marble base, creating multi-material geometric patterns that follow one another.
VELA. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. The soft and linear geometries of Vela give rise to a design where simplicity and form contrast coexist in harmony. Available in three different formats, the Vela modules feature strongly rounded geometries that, when combined together, ensure elegance and a soft effect, as well as different installation types.
IRIDE. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. Like a stretch of precious pearls, Iride develops with a regular pattern of spherical lines and small triangular details, true points of contact between the circular shapes. Two formats for a collection that, thanks to the millimetric precision of the interlocks, allows combinations between the marble spheres and metal inlays with innovative PVD treatment.
SPACCO. Design: Emmanuel Gallina. Spacco is a marble wall covering composed of four different modules that can be arranged in various ways to create unexpected line patterns. Mineral-inspired, this texture evokes the “wrinkles“ and undulating movements of rock typical of natural landscapes. The shades of color, combined with irregular lines, generate an image similar to a cartographic relief. The engraved curves, with a semi-gloss finish, contrast with the marble surface, revealing its velvety and warm appearance.
PARALLELO. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. The design of Parallelo is distinguished by its linear and essential motif. Its minimal geometry and wide range of composition possibilities among the seven different available formats (with linear combinations in the same direction or multi-directional) guarantee a unique marble scenography for the destination surface. The grooves, which create the play of lines, give each environment unexpected and original light effects.
DEDALO. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. Linear geometries are the protagonists of the Dedalo collection, with a design that draws on nature-inspired shapes. The pattern develops vertically and horizontally, immediately creating an immersive scenario where one can lose their gaze. The different possible combinations start from a format with two different inclinations that create dynamic lines.
CAVA. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. Inspired by essential geometric shapes, Cava plays on the union of traditional textures and three-dimensional effects. Available in two different formats, the sinuousness of the central circular element translates into a concave shape, giving the composition originality and unique light effects.
TRACCIA. Design: Claesson Koivisto Rune. The lines of the Traccia series are the true protagonists of its design, simple and dynamic. Available in two formats, the Traccia models highlight the tactile experience of marble. The grooves that create its soft oblique geometries generate exclusive three-dimensional marble effects, installable in various combinations.
