Product catalog summary

Overview

The document introduces the Res Art collection, a series of large-format porcelain stoneware slabs that blend artistic inspiration with advanced technology to create innovative surfaces for floors and walls. These slabs mimic the tactile and visual qualities of hand-worked resin, offering durable ceramic materials with rich texture and depth.

1. Product Description and Artistic Concept

Res Art surfaces evoke a balance between reality and imagination by combining craftsmanship, manual techniques, and modern production methods. The slabs measure 160x320 cm with a thickness of 6.5 mm and replicate the effect of spatula-applied resin, providing warmth and intensity suitable for expressive architectural projects.

2. Color Palette and Texture

The collection features a dense, rich color palette with neutral tones accented by terracotta and cobalt. Textures are patinated and relief-like with a waxy finish that enhances light refraction, creating a tactile and visual experience. A unique decorative pattern inspired by woodland shadows adds design versatility.

3. Product Range and Sizes

Res Art slabs come in multiple sizes to suit diverse design needs:

160x320 cm (62.99"x125.98")
120x240 cm (47.24"x94.49")
