Inspired by stone, limestone in particular, the new Cotto d’Este collection is a hymn to naturalness, to balance and to measure as instruments for an elegant and delicately expressive result. The background texture, characterised by a grain structure typical of limestone, is combined with a refined movement generated by nuances and changes in tone, to give life to an extremely complete series, including 14 mm thick stoneware, 20 mm outdoor stoneware and the excellence of Kerlite, the large ultra-thin slabs, crowning achievement of the Cotto d’Este proposal.
The new collection by Blustyle takes inspiration from the contemporary appeal of concrete and its evolutions over time. In line with the growing appreciation of more textural surfaces, concrete and the materials that draw on it evolve into an interesting surface for walls, floors and ceilings, giving rooms a lived-in yet sophisticated feel.
The collection comes in an elegant version - Flat - characterized by a uniform color enriched by shading and delicate color variations that evoke the darker shades created by time on the surface of concrete; and a rustic version - Crust - with graphics-rich in detail and accentuated chromatic movement, as if obtained by lateral peeling that highlights the transition from slab to slab.
Endless represents the marble trend that has come to stay as one of the pillars of decoration in recent years. The great growth of ceramic marbles also shows how much they have evolved and how they continue to be one of the all-time favourites for interior design and architecture projects.

The collection benefits from large formats - 300x100, 250x100, 100x100 and 50x100 - to show all the splendor of the graphic design of these pieces and their hyper-realism, with colours and graphics rich in depth and detail. The collection is also available in more common formats, but which are still large, such as the 90x90 and 60x120 sizes.
Allied to sustainability and the beauty of stone in its pure and natural state, Sense harks back to the epic elegance of stone and nature itself, providing comfort to every setting.
