Glitch by Benoy
Glitch is a range of porcelain stoneware tiles developed by Piemme in partnership with one of the biggest international design studios: Benoy. Individuality and imperfection are ever-more desirable in the modern world of mass production, in which everything is type approved and homogenised. Beauty is increasingly sought out in imperfections: the knots in wood, the veining in marble, scratches in leather. Glitch brings out and highlights the heterogeneous nature of concrete, and all those little imperfections characteristic of this surface, such as cracks, patinas, scratches and weathering, all harmonised and reinterpreted as ceramic tiles. The decorative range borrows from the imperfections present in the digital world - hence the name "Glitch" - and melds them with the tones of concrete both on flat and three-dimensional bases. The result is a contemporary aesthetic which can be applied equally to residential environments and to commercial locations.
Venetian Marble
A collection inspired by the Venetian terrazzo flooring used since ancient times in Greece. It then reached and became widespread in Italy, first of all thanks to the ancient Romans and then to the Venetian nobles.

CERAMICHE PIEMME INVENTS A NEW...“MATERIA”
Materia is the name of the new collection by Ceramiche Piemme: an unusual effect, creating
surfaces that merge metal, Corten steel, stone and ceramic in a refined, contemporary look.
Starting out from very different metals, oxidised or glossy, from the natural feel of stone and the versatility of ceramic, Ceramiche Piemme’s R&D team have created a new material with “Materia”.
Thanks to sophisticated production technologies, this collection combines the ground look typical of hand-polished metal with the small flaws that denote genuine craftsmanship.
It is available in six tones, ranging from the lightest OPAL (white) to DEEP (anthracite), taking in the light grey NACRE, the dove grey SHIMMER, the dark grey REFLEX and the Corten steel-coloured RUST.
Six sizes are available, with two three-dimensional structures and two third-firing decorations.

GLITCH SURFACES: EXQUISITE IMPERFECTION BY BENOY
Glitch is the new collection of porcelain stoneware tiles designed by London firm Benoy.
The word "glitch" refers to the flickering produced on a computer screen by an unforeseen error. A theme very much in line with the design trend that favours imperfection as a sign of uniqueness. Hence the inspiration of the Benoy designers, expressed in 8 colours in various sizes.
"We wanted to come up with wall tiles focusing on the distinctive irregularities of concrete surfaces, such as cracks, films, scratches and wear, and reinterpret them for ceramics" Andy Piepenstock, Benoy Design Director, explains. "The idea of Glitch is based on a paradox: instead of providing a digital reproduction of the flaws of nature... this collection gives tangible form to the flaws and errors of the digital world!”
The result is a contemporary collection ideal for both homes and commercial locations (Benoy's real specialism).
"Glitch expands our range and extends our concept of culturally upgrading our design" explains Davide Colli, Chief Operating Officer of Ceramiche Piemme. "Technological updates and range renewal require continual inputs from designers and architects like Benoy, which handles construction projects all over the world."

THE NEW TILES FOR THE RETAIL SECTOR: CERAMICHE PIEMME
From 16 to 20 February 2020, at Euroshop 2020 (Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre, Hall 10, Stand G52) Ceramiche Piemme will be presenting Materia, Glitch by Benoy and Venetian Marble: three ceramic covering collections designed for the retail sector.
"This event forms part of our strategy of consolidation on the international markets," Davide Colli, COO of Ceramiche Piemme explains. "The positions we have worked to achieve in recent years confirm our status as a professional, recognised brand. Now we want to grow in the medium-high end commercial and residential retail sectors. It's a market where quality is still key, and where the new products we have developed during 2019 have already had a very favourable reception, in both the USA and the UK."

Last but not least, Venetian Marble combines the technical performances of latest-generation stoneware with the look of Venetian Terrazzo flooring, and is intended to support architects when choosing the finishes for public and private locations.
