CATALOGO DE INSPIRACION 2024

Product catalog summary

1. Inspirational Quotes and Design Philosophy

The document opens with influential design quotes emphasizing the pursuit of impactful design ('WOW' factor), the reinforcing power of color, the importance of details, simplicity, and the interplay of volumes and light in architecture. These set the tone for the catalog’s design ethos.

2. Collections Overview and Index

An extensive index lists numerous tile collections such as Twin Peaks, Faces, Cotto Stardust, Abbey Stone, Love Affairs, Icon, Glow, Tesserae, and Wellness by WOW, among others. Each collection is detailed on specific pages and features a variety of finishes, colors, and sizes. Highlighted "WOW" pieces denote exceptional design impact within collections.

3. Tile Formats, Sizes, and Shapes

Tiles are available in diverse formats including square, rectangular, hexagonal, diamond, rhombus, trapezium, chevron, and custom shapes. Sizes range from small mosaics (e.g., 0.8x0.8 cm special pieces) to large formats (up to 44x44 cm XXL tiles). Special pieces such as rounded edges, bevels, corners, and decorative strips complement main tile formats for design versatility.

4. Finishes and Surface Treatments

Finishes include matt, gloss, silk, stone, and textured surfaces. Anti-slip finishes are classified from R9 to R11, with R11 indicating higher slip resistance suitable for indoor and outdoor applications. Dynamic Coefficient of Friction (DCOF) values generally exceed 0.42, ensuring safety in wet conditions. Matt finishes typically offer better slip resistance than gloss.

5. Technical Specifications and Safety Features

Slip Resistance: R9 to R11 ratings depending on collection and finish.
DCOF Values: Mostly above 0.42, supporting safe use in wet or outdoor environments.
Body Types: Porcelain (white body and full body) and concrete/cement-based tiles.
Rectification: Many tiles are rectified for precise edges and minimal grout lines.
Abrasion Resistance: Not detailed but noted as a key property.

6. Color and Pattern Variations

The catalog offers a broad palette including neutrals, earth tones, vibrant hues, metallics, and natural shades like Natural, Graphite, Taupe, Moss, Mustard, Deep Blue, and more. Patterns range from solid colors to intricate carved, embossed, and decor tiles. Many collections feature randomly mixed patterns or tone variations within boxes to create natural, unique installations.

7. Special Features and Certifications

10. Catalog Structure and Visual Elements

The catalog is well-organized with page references for each collection, implying the presence of images, color swatches, and product specifications.
