ON THE COVER: The hallmark of Paprica, the new 1741 collection by Marca Corona, are the contemporary colors and creative patterns that turn ceramics into a design element with a surprising look. These 25- x 21.6-cm hexagonal porcelain stoneware floor and wall tiles come in two colors — three elegant, neutral grays and three eccentric shades of red, blue and mustard — selected to bring a brighter, bubblier touch to interiors. Style research has focused on geometries and stylized graphics, giving rise to four original single-subject motifs and an innovative mix of decor elements. Both decorative solutions are available both in the sophisticated black and white version and an eye-catching colored version.

ON THE COVER:
Lunada Bay Tile recently added a new color and two new patterns to its line of Haisen glass tiles. While this exquisite collection is reminiscent of the decorative bowls originally used to wash sake drinking cups during the late Edo to Meiji period in Japan, today "Haisen" recalls vessels that display flower petals floating in water. Lunada Bay Tile's distinctive Haisen tiles are handcrafted by melding streams of colored glass that drift and unite in a multitude of hues. The swirl and flow
of color create transformative moods ranging from quiet and meditative to warm celebration and camaraderie.

The Hub palette ranges from cold shades to warm colors.

The South Atlantic coast of Africa is considered some of the most stunning desert terrain in the world. A trip to this surreal destination offers vistas of rippling dunes, flat clay pans and rocky outcrops, not to mention, endless
sky. This incredible landscape brings inspiration for the Namibia series by Lunada Bay Tile, a three-dimensional ceramic tile collection, which incorporates a special hand-sculpting technique to create tiles that are truly one-of-a-kind. Every tile is created by hand and no two tiles are the same. The undulating patterns come in four formats that engage a sense of adventure and rejuvenation — like the discovery of a hidden oasis.

On the cover:
Emilceramica extends the scope of Tele di Marmo with the addition of four variants inspired by four fresh looks of the material that is the icon of classical style, steeped in natural elegance and innate charisma. Tele di Marmo Revolution is the contemporary interpretation of marble now included in the Reloaded project, the aesthetic crucible of ideas linked to the work of great artists of all ages and geographical origins. In Revolution, an innovative approach to art is achieved through studying colour and design starting from the symbiosis of natural elements, with inspiration from the world's most amazing landscapes. Blue in all its thousand shades from azure to cobalt is the central theme of the Patagonia variant, referencing the beauty of the "marble cathedrals" on Lake Carrera between Argentina and Chile — great caves carved by the water, with colors and reflected tints that change with the passing days and seasons.
