In the gentle flow of space and time

Background

scroll down

Time flows by leaving its traces through layers of materials that settle and amalgamate, stratifications of dust and natural elements shaped by atmospheric agents and a continuous flow of sea water, which smoothes and compacts surfaces. Background finds its inspiration in a limestone of calcareous origin with an almost monochrome texture. Placed in these settings dominated by strong, uncontaminated nature, it retains the primary elements that characterise it but evolves them to produce a porcelain stoneware with a minimalist aesthetic and extremely matt finish that is pleasant to the touch, covering rooms with rare beauty.

Silent dialogues between
technology and expressive design

Harmony is a question of balance that can be discovered in large ceramic slabs presented in 4 warm and harmonious shades. Perfect visual continuity between wall and floor coverings envelops residential and commercial spaces, extending to the customisation of furnishing elements and ventilated walls, with textures that are sophisticated and light, yet distinctly material and natural.

Toneon-tone decorations work on an aesthetic that vibrates in the light, through movements of lines or rarefied foliage that achieve their most authentic expression in particularly rich detail.

3D Texture with intense material realism

Fondovalle is heralding a new era in the production of porcelain stoneware thanks to 3D Texture, a highly innovative digital technology that offers a deep material quality, producing a three-dimensional effect on surfaces to accurately resemble the wood that inspired them. 3D Texture technology permits perfect synchronisation between different applications and materials with extraordinarily realistic effects and depth of detail. The result is the fruit of investment and painstaking research, enhancing the three-dimensionality of the pressed mix; colours and textures synergistically harmonise and the surfaces acquire an authenticity perceptible to both touch and sight.

Real Matt
technology

Introducing the perfectly matt finish with a velvety touch

Real Matt technology lends porcelain stoneware a highly matt finish (much more so than the unworked finish), guaranteeing maximum softness to the touch and ease of cleaning. The result of talent, research, and constant passionate experimentation with ceramics, this technology removes absolutely all reflections from the tiles. Featuring layer upon layer of only the most select materials and very low levels of gloss, the body of these tiles renders the appearance of their natural counterparts and their multiple shading effects with an absolute realism.
