Stoneware and Terracotta in Neutral Shades

As usual, Keraben offers ceramic solutions inspired by nature, in innovative and very varied formats. Neutral shades – greys, beiges, grays – are the protagonists of the collections and lend themselves to projects with the most diverse styles. By using neutral shades as a background you obtain a harmonious and warm decoration, against which stronger color accents can be placed. The advantage of using a neutral color palette in a decoration is that they never go out of style, unlike bolder colors.

Like every year, each of the group’s brands (Keraben, Metropol and Casainfinita) had its own stand with extremely inspired environments. The «Keraben Grupo RESORT» stand was created according to the concept of «Slow Living», the idea of ​​living life in harmony, without letting yourself be robbed by the daily frenzy. The large stand, made up of interconnected spaces, displayed the brand new collections of tiles and coverings, suitable for any project, residential or public.

CAMELOT is a new collection of tiles and stoneware that imitates natural stone, developed by the Casa Infinita brand, with decorative profiles created specifically for this series. It is a collection of ceramic tiles that combines traditional and contemporary design. The concrete look and textured decorative tiles give a slightly rustic look, full of personality. Camelot adapts to different projects, being able to create unique decorations: each model has 17 different prints.
