To coincide with the 58th edition of the Salone Internazionale del Mobile, Marazzi has opens its new display location on Via Borgogna 2, expanded and completely refurbished to a design by architects Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel, and also previews its the new collections of slabs in ultra-large sizes.
In their project for the Marazzi showroom, occupying a space of almost 400 square metres in the heart of Milan’s Durini design district, the architects have radically reshaped its interior layout to house the new ultra-large size stoneware slabs and Marazzi’s infinite collection of surfaces.
“There’s a kind of magic in Marazzi’s product design and development,” Patricia Veil explains. “Technology and creativity transform a generic and inert raw material into surfaces that evoke ancient workmanship, precious marbles, inlays, mosaic art and three-dimensional structures. To evoke this alchemy, the showroom project becomes a collector’s library, a Wunderkammer of colours and materials,a rug souk and a maze of rooms that form a constant visual sequence, yet are each different and surprising.”
The Marazzi collections are displayed in a succession of themed rooms which emphasise their exquisite beauty: from the large slabs hung like rich Persian carpets to the museum-like shelves which exhibit smaller size tiles that exemplify an endless collection of finishes, structures, surfaces and colours, each presented as a unique, unrepeatable object of great value.
“This display approach is completely new and original for the ceramics world,” comments Marazzi CEO Mauro Vandini, “and we believe it will offer a clearer understanding of the way our design and development work and ceramic materials are continually evolving.”
“No-one could deny that Milan is one of the world’s design and architecture capitals,” Mr Vandini adds, “and our intention is to ensure that the Marazzi showroom on via Borgogna continues to provide professionals and customers with a location that welcomes yet also surprises and impresses them, where they can explore the very latest applications of design and technology development in ceramic coverings.”
At the entrance to the showroom, a preview of the Grand Wood Tarsia collection, design Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, which deploys the amazing decorative potential of wood and its structure and references the ancient art of inlay on the improbable, gigantic scale of the stoneware slab, creating a form of extremely realistic optical illusion.
Next to Tarsia, the new Marazzi Grande Marble Look Terrazzo collection of slabs, inspired by classical Venetian Seminato, and a homage to Triennale, the four curve tile designed by Gio Ponti and Alberto Rosselli for Marazzi in 1960, created in SistemStechnical stoneware.
The partners who have contributed to the showroom’s realisation include world design leaders such as Altai, B&B Italia, Ivano Redaelli, Maxalto, Tecnogym and Viabizzuno.
為了配合第58屆米蘭家具展（Salone Internazionale del Mobile），Marazzi在Via Borgogna 2揭幕了由建筑師Antonio Citterio和Patricia Viel設計的全新展廳，并展示了馬拉齊全新大板系列。
他們設計的Marazzi展廳項目，占據了米蘭著名設計街區——杜里尼設計區中心近400平方米的空間，建筑師徹底改造了展廳內部布局，以便容納新的超大規格瓷磚和Marazzi豐富的產品系列。
“Marazzi的產品設計和開發有一股神奇力量，”Patricia Veil解釋說， “技術和創造力將一種常見的惰性原材料轉化為精美外觀，喚醒了古老的工藝、名貴的大理石、鑲嵌、馬賽克藝術和三維結構。為了喚起這個魔力，Marazzi米蘭展廳項目搖身一變成為了——收藏家的圖書館。 色彩和材料的多寶閣、地毯露天市場和迷宮般的房間，形成一個恒定的視覺序列，每個不同卻又令人驚嘆。
Marazzi眾多產品分別展(zhan)示在一(yi)系列主題客房中，強(qiang)調了(le)馬拉(la)齊(qi)產品精致(zhi)的(de)(de)美感(gan)：從像名貴波斯(si)地毯般懸掛的(de)(de)魔毯大板到展(zhan)示小規(gui)格(ge)瓷磚(zhuan)的(de)(de)博(bo)物館般的(de)(de)展(zhan)架，體現了(le)無(wu)窮無(wu)盡的(de)(de)飾面(mian)、結構(gou)、表面(mian)和顏色。 每一(yi)個都是一(yi)件(jian)別具一(yi)格(ge)、無(wu)法重復的(de)(de)高價值(zhi)單品。
Marazzi首(shou)席執行官Mauro Vandini表(biao)示：“這種展示方式(shi)對于陶瓷世界(jie)來說是嶄新的(de)創(chuang)舉，”我(wo)們相信它(ta)將更清楚地表(biao)達我(wo)們的(de)設計和開發工作(zuo)以及陶瓷材(cai)料是持續發展的(de)。”
“任何人(ren)都不能否認米蘭是(shi)世界設(she)計(ji)和建(jian)筑之都，” Vandini先生補(bu)充(chong)道，“我(wo)們(men)的(de)目的(de)是(shi)確保(bao)通過(guo)Borgogna的(de)Marazzi展廳(ting)繼續為專(zhuan)業人(ren)士和客(ke)戶(hu)提(ti)供一個既賓至如歸，又能帶來驚喜(xi)和留(liu)下深(shen)刻(ke)印象的(de)空間，在此處(chu)他們(men)可(ke)以(yi)探索(suo)陶瓷產品最(zui)新的(de)設(she)計(ji)和技術開發應用。“
在展廳的入口處，由Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel設計的木紋大板系列——Tarsia躍入眼簾，它展示了木材及其結構驚人的裝飾潛力，并參考了古老的鑲嵌藝術。令人嘆為觀止的巨大的木紋瓷磚大板，營造了一種非常逼真的視覺錯覺效果。
Tarsia旁邊是新的Marazz理石大板Terrazzo系列，靈感來自經典的威尼斯水磨石。同時，展廳另一側則用于致敬Triennale（龐蒂系列），這是由Gio Ponti和Alberto Rosselli于1960年為Marazzi設計的四弧磚，采用SistemS技術系列瓷磚制作而成。
為展廳貢獻的合作伙伴包括以下世界著名設計品牌，如Altai，B＆B Italia，Ivano Redaelli，Maxalto，Tecnogym和Viabizzuno。
