April is fast approaching, and with it idfx's Stone and Ceramics Focus. We've been in contact with interior designers over the past month and are really excited about the projects we have encountered! Ceramics and stones are being revived in innovative and beautiful ways for modern design. Check out the April issue for the final pick of our absolute favourites, but here are a few of the projects that have recently caught our attention.


Unifamiliar

Unifamiliar, a residential project in Moaña. Vigo, Spain, was designed by Christina Cordeiro. While ceramic floors and walls in the bathroom might seem ordinary, Cordeiro took the idea of ceramic surfaces to a whole new level.

The bathroom features bright red tiles and sleek white surfaces while the living room incorporates a more natural ceramic on the floor and one wall.

The Chelsea Tile Company Showroom

The Chelsea Tile Company has created a chic showroom that incorporates its products into a home setting. Everything in the showroom is tiled, from the walls to the floors and even the worktops and tables, which feature glass tiles in beautiful mosaics.

The David Tang Project

After Sir David Tang spotted Dominic Crinson's tile work in the Boundary Hotel in London he decided he had to approach him to create a mural for three penthouse suites he was designing in Beijing.

The penthouse suites, which overlook the new Olympic stadium, feature murals generated from Dominic's own photography. The photos are composed digitally to create a montage of Beijing's cityscape (the title image of this piece). Past Dominic Crinson murals were designed the same way and include Londonscape and Newyorkscape.

It always looks terrific by using the stone decorative material.
