The Top by Marazzi

One material, countless applications. This is the principle upon which the design of Marazzi’s exhibition at the Milan Furniture Fair has been developed. A demonstration, widespread and sophisticated, of how ceramic tiles can achieve extraordinary and changing expressions, shaped by the skilled expertise of the company from Sassuolo. 

What emerges is not a straightforward stand but a suite in a urban hotel, a 200 square metre retreat, that is perfectly fitted out in all its most intimate and functional spaces. The atmosphere is soft and elegant, perspectives extended and dilated. There is a measured effect of chiaroscuro and a play of solid and void that dictates the rhythm while the eye moves around the interiors, struggling to recognise which are the architectural elements and which are items of furniture.

This material continuity is in fact what distinguishes the entire installation, in which surfaces and objects find a common denominator in the large format tiles The Top Stone Look and Marble Look, the true protagonists of the settings.

The two ceramic collections have in fact between applied to the walls, floors and tops of furniture in an uninterrupted and reciprocal dialogue between the marble and stone-effect materials and rooms in the suite. This special harmony is accentuated by the qualities brought by Marazzi’s Premium Technology 3D Ink, that creates a singular match between the pattern and texture of the ceramic giving it an extraordinary material realism.

To this is then added, at a functional level, Puro Marazzi Antibacterial technology, able to eliminate up to 99.9% of  bacteria and other harmful microorganisms enabling the large tiles to also be used in the kitchen and on all surfaces that come into contact with food. The Marazzi suite thus becomes an immersive journey into the aesthetic and technological performance of the brand and its tiles, material that is altered to generate all kinds of shapes and accommodate multiple scales of application.
