atlas concorde, partnered with matteo brioni, creates nature-inspired tile

boost natural pairs nature with performance

nature, performance and technology come together for atlas concorde in a play of ceramic surfaces. in partnership with matteo brioni, collection ‘boost natural’ transforms the design dialectics of opposites into a form of its own, bringing the material strength of raw earth into the sophisticated world of the concrete effect. the slight texture of clay, the opacity, ripples and delicate shading make up the contemporary, essential aesthetic that reveals the traces of manual workmanship and the granular structure of the material.

the collection offers a selection of wall tiles with three-dimensional effects

boost natural also offers an extensive selection of wall tiles developed on a natural surface inspired by the uniform colors of raw clay, and three variants with a three-dimensional effect. the first, 3D brushed, has a striped geometry with a strong earthy look and recalls the effect of an expert use of brushes, trowels, and traditional hand tools, whilst 3D texture takes on the harmonic fusion of different decorative patterns, mixing the imprint left by lace and fabrics on the surface. thirdly, 3D wave features a wave movement that recalls the effect created by the trowel handiwork, leaving details and small imperfections that play with the light in an ever-changing manner.

the three-dimensional wall tile project adds significant decorative potential, inspired by the craftsmanship of handworked raw earth surfaces.

the porcelain tiles expand the possibilities of use as the surfaces can decorate the indoors as well as outdoor spaces. the rhombus mosaic has medium-sized triangular tiles that create a geometric pattern with a delicate decorative effect, while the tumbled mosaic follows a staggered arrangement and misaligned joints, emphasizing its handcrafted nature in an elegant key.
