PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Floor and wall coverings
DESIGNER
Ivan Djordjevic
YEAR
2021
The concrete-look surfaces of Portland, installed in different sizes and with special decors, alternate graphic effects that evoke the ways concrete is shaped and installed, in an attractive interplay of tasteful contrasts achieved through shade variations and subtle decorative touches. References to a tradition with an urban spirit give way to the desire for change, redesigning space with a unique, unmistakable personality.
The marks, scratches and flaws of the concrete look also feature on the walls of the relaxation zone, giving the location an appeal rich in creative energy. Urban Craft gives coverings an original, unique touch, a kind of homage to urban art transferred into unusual contexts to construct completely new looks. Traces of rusty metal become the ideal background for covering new creative spaces, where people can express their personalities through colours, shapes and material effects.

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 -

VN Medical Clinic
A state-of-the-art clinic where beauty is the essence.
A place of precision and passion, dedicated to detail to provide the ultimate wellness experience. This is Modena VN Medical Clinic, a cosmetic and anti-aging clinic that celebrates the uniqueness of each client, offering personalised care within an elegant, inviting ambiance.Warm and sophisticated, the space - measuring about 200 m2 and encompassing the reception area, waiting room, and treatment rooms - embodies a refined minimalism in its design with an elegantly understated but still clearly visible style. It is precisely this design philosophy that led to the choice of Ceramica Fondovalle to decorate the clinic’s interiors: From the waiting areas to the treatment rooms, the ceramic slabs from the Background, Komi, and Infinito 2.0 collections take centre stage, showcasing a sophisticated aesthetic that flows seamlessly through the different spaces, creating a stunning continuity of expression.
