The Unique Infinity collection, available exclusively at European Ceramics, combines Brazil's exotic materiality with quality Italian craftsmanship, making it the ideal choice for architects, designers, and homeowners looking to elevate their spaces with natural beauty and sophisticated design.
In a recent interview with Sali Pearson, National Sales and Key Account Director at European Ceramics, ArchiPro was given a front-row seat at the unveiling of the new Provenza Unique Infinity collection.
“The new collection was inspired by the mesmerising patterns found in black brecciated quartzite,” says Pearson.
“Originating from Brazil, this unique stone captivates with its distinctive structure, stippling and vivid mineral details juxtaposed with expansive neutral tones.”
New Zealand-based supplier European Ceramics is a collaboration of global luxury brands that combine design expertise and quality to supply the latest in flooring, wall, and surfacing products to local architects and designers.
“This new Unique Infinity tile collection by Provenza offers two distinct interpretations [Purestone and Cobblestone], with each one capturing the essence of Brazilian brecciated quartzite in unique ways,” Pearson adds.
- Purestone emphasises simplicity and harmony with expansive neutral tones and subtle mineral details.
- Cobblestone adds a dynamic, eclectic touch with its rich textures and vibrant stippling.
Available in four stunning neutrals–grey, beige, white and black, the collection provides a tasteful synthesis of natural beauty and modern design. Each porcelain tile is crafted with precision by global brand Provenza in Italy, ensuring the highest quality and authenticity.
The Infinity collection's versatile nature and size range makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, integrating into various architectural and residential projects with ease.
Craftsmanship
According to Pearson, the journey of the Unique Infinity collection begins in Brazil, where the black brecciated quartzite Negresco is carefully sourced. “Once sourced, the raw quartzite is transported to Italy, where Provenza's skilled artisans meticulously, through digital technology, craft each tile from a natural stone into a porcelain of equal distinction, quality and appeal,” remarks Pearson
The result is a porcelain collection that embodies the essence of multiform infinity, showcasing the harmonious blend of natural elements and human ingenuity.
Design potential
Inspired by its namesake, the Unique Infinity collection is designed to empower architects and designers with infinite possibilities, explains Pearson. “The Unique Infinity collection’s versatile nature and size range makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, integrating into various architectural and residential projects with ease,” she says.
Whether designing a minimalist kitchen, a serene bathroom, or an inviting outdoor patio, these tiles offer endless possibilities. Pearson provides insights into how the Unique Infinity collection can enhance design projects.
Indoor spaces: Use the Unique Infinity Purestone interpretation to create serene and elegant interiors, perfect for living rooms, kitchens and bathrooms. The neutral tones and subtle details provide a sophisticated backdrop that complements various design styles.
