The wide range of flavours is reproduced in the colour palette used to create the shop’s furnishings and fittings, which work with a dominant shade – white – to produce a creative finish.
Fondovalle was the ideal partner to reinforce this architectural philosophy, with offerings for floors, walls, and also items of furniture such as the countertop, the shelves in the cafe, and the tables for customers.
Shards (in the Small White and Small Gray versions) and Infinito 2.0 (in the Calacatta Gold and Ombra di Caravaggio colour options) encapsulate the essence of Ocean Beyond Blue, making it an attractive, contemporary café.
The light bouncing off the shards embedded in porcelain stoneware bring depth and a distinctive nature to the furniture created – such as tables and shelves – and the tiled areas of the ice cream & coffee shop.

Bosideng Fashion Store (2021-2022)
Located on South Molton Street, so just off Oxford Street and in the heart of London, the Bosideng Fashion Store is an stunning example of sophisticated contemporary design created by Milan-based architectural firm Cristofori Santi. Its unusual "V" shape makes it a landmark building in the area, whose inimitable, avant-garde aesthetic captures the attention of visitors and architecture enthusiasts.

Terme di Castel San Pietro
The new swimming pool and vascular treatment path at the Terme di Castel San Pietro thermal baths complex in Bologna was opened on 16 March, with a ceremony attended by representatives of the main authorities.
Conceived and designed to offer a better welcome and greater comfort through the introduction of special, advanced technologies, the area has been completely renovated in both the rehabilitation area and in the changing rooms, to make these areas more appealing, elegant, and modern.Dream Res art -
bakery & hotel (BED-BIKE-BREAD)
Located in the tourist village of Csopak, in Hungary, Buborék Csopak offers a cosy place for cyclists and nature walk enthusiasts to stay all year round, accompanied by various other services (BED-BIKE-BREAD). The building was completely refurbished in June 2022 to create a location that houses not only a bakery, but also a bike shop and a hotel. The upper floor has been repurposed to provide a comfortable place where travellers can stay the night and recharge their batteries (in more ways than one!).
What architects Eszter Bertóty and Edit Móder were aiming for was to create a space that was both functional and inviting, featuring a clean contemporary design born from a fusion of Scandinavian and Mediterranean moods.
Bathed in neutral tones, the interiors are furnished with modern furniture with natural materials predominating throughout. Inside the building then, the bakery's characteristic counter, the fireplace, and the bathrooms walls are all tiled with Ceramica Fondovalle porcelain stoneware from the Res Art collection, in the Talc, Pottery and Mud shades.Res art -
Le Marzoline restaurant
Le Marzoline restaurant, in the attractive context of Palazzo di Varignana, offers not just a wonderful food and wine experience but also the entrée into a world of relaxation. The architectural beauty of Palazzo di Varignana creates a unique backdrop which blends seamlessly into the mood created in the restaurant itself.
The owners chose to embrace the elegance and hospitable warm of the wood-look slabs of the Ceramica Fondovalle Komi collection to create an exciting, refined culinary adventure.

Clinica Dobrobut
Cradle of the Slavic civilisation, melting pot of different cultures, bridge between the East and the West, today the city boasts an infinite array of both cultural and panoramic attractions. From Saint Sophia Cathedral to Saint Michael’s Monastery, through to the best known districts like Podil, Kyiv never ceases to amaze and is also home to numerous parks and important museums.
The city is also the location of the private Dobrobut clinics, jewel in the crown of the local health service, which consist of 12 medical centres qualified in accordance with modern international standards. Equipped with all the latest technologies, the Dobrobut Clinics are modern and welcoming facilities.
And it was in one of these facilities that the allure and functionality of Ceramica Fondovalle branded products was chosen to elegantly furnish some of the internal spaces of the building.
