The partnership between Pininfarina Design and Casalgrande Padana continues. The collection EARTH marking the beginning of the partnership will be further expanded during Cersaie 2016 with new finishes and colors.
EARTH by Pininfarina comes from the combination of the know-how of the ceramic company and Pininfarina design, with the aim of giving life to a collection with a distinctive and iconic character.
The novelty of the project lies in the versatility of the system that allows the combination of a refined and minimalist tile with striking decorations recalling the automotive.
The texture of the slab – made of porcelain stoneware - is conceptually the result of the fusion of three different materials (glass, leather and fabric) that generates a strong multi-sensorial effect: the final perception can be seen from a warm view while from in close proximity you can appreciate the tactile three-dimensionality of the texture.
The wide colors palette and the availability of large sizes enable a creative use in different spaces. The inspiration for the decorations comes directly from the automotive tradition of Pininfarina. Characterized by extremely neat and elegant lines, the decorations are made unique by the use of special finishes and materials – car body paint, fine wood, natural leather treated to allow its use as coating element.
