Rustic Modern Adding a new twist to coun- try style, wood, stone, brick and cotto are invigorated by mod- ern schemes, hues and patterns. Antique stone with metallic accents, terracotta in quatrefoil shapes, and geometric patterns overlaid onto distressed wood planks are just a few of the ways tile companies are blending farm- house charm with modern ele- gance. Collections include Alpes by ABK, Borgogna by Coem, Climb by Del Conca, Arezzo by Faetano, Firenze Heritage by Fap, Cottofaenza by LaFaenza, Materia by Novabell, Maison by Ricchetti, Faber by Sant’Agostino, Proxi by Settecento, Rivamancina by Tagina and Trecentogradi by Viva. Warp & Weft Texture is the defining charac- ter of this year’s tile collections, which complements the many new textile-inspired lines. Designs range from lace, macramé, linen and madras to masculine suiting fabrics, leather, tweed and tartan. Whether woven, knitted, knotted, or layered, the designs add anoth- er tactile element to the hard sur- face. Arte Pura by Ceramiche Refin features three distinct designs that capture the feminine sensibility and fantastical world of Daniela Dallavalle, from imprints of lace and fragmented embroidery to layers of torn linen with frenetic doodles. Also of note is Vetrite, which turns Sicis fabrics into luxu- rious cladding via large-format thin glass panels. Additional col- lections include Crea by Ariana, Room by Atlas Concorde, Stone City by Del Conca, Lin_Side by Edilgres, Dream by Fondovalle, Trame by Lea, Reve by Mirage, TailorArt by Sant’Agostino and Aria by Verde1999.
