It was 1917 when Pier Luigi Nervi patented the “cement conglomerate reinforced by metal elements uniformly distributed in the mix”. A real symbolic moment, which gave way in the twentieth century to the use of this material which marked a good part of the century.
Concrete, immediately an expression of indissoluble link between technique and form, became an emblem of modernity in architecture.
Over time, technological research, new patents and artistic experiments have helped to clear the traditional image of cement and to build new possible developments through the application of new digital technologies.
Elegant and functional, it is a material capable of enhancing contemporary architecture but it can also characterize the more classic ones, thanks to its peculiarities of sobriety and essentiality.
Marazzi reinterprets the characteristic continuous surface effect of concrete with the new Grande Concrete Look porcelain stoneware collection.
The new dimensions 120 × 240 and 120 × 120 cm, perfectly squared, allow continuity solutions. The chromatic range with neutral and natural tones, in five nuances with soft shades on the surface, well interprets the most diverse design and stylistic needs of domestic and contract spaces, such as restaurants and shops, and thanks to the anti-slip properties it can also be used in public contexts.
Grande Concrete Look is part of the new Marazzi Grande collection, also available in the marble effect version, created to explore new frontiers of porcelain stoneware surfaces and to expand the possibilities of design and customization with an extraordinarily ductile, resistant and even light material, thanks only 6 mm thick. Grande represents a new generation of porcelain stoneware slabs with which to cover horizontal and vertical flat surfaces – from furnishing elements to building facades – indoors and outdoors and to create infinite solutions, allowing tailor made projects such as cuts and shapes to measure, laser decorations and digital, customized mosaics.
