Creating seamless transitions through built environments is a design concept that we call ‘Connected Living’.
Over the coming weeks we’ll be exploring the Minoli ranges that offer both coordinating interior tiles and exterior specification paving, so providing a holistic system of surface solutions for walls and floors, inside and outdoors.
In the first of our series of articles, today we feature two of the cutting-edge collections that demonstrate the latest technical advancements in porcelain stoneware, enabling interior and garden designers, architects, housebuilders and property developers to realise the most creative and inventive design directions.
New manufacturing methodologies take porcelain stoneware to unprecedented levels of realism and deliver new types of texture and tone. Over their natural quarried counterparts, stone-effect porcelain tiles are more durable, stain and fade resistant, easier to clean and maintain, do not require sealing, are more uniform in production and so easier to install with precision.
With a comprehensive portfolio of high-performance porcelain tiles, large format slabs, outdoor paving and cladding, mosaics and décor ranges, Minoli has all the products to fulfil the most forward-thinking interior and exterior design requirements and integrated architectural schemes.
Minoli Marvel Travertine
Celebrating one of the most prestigious and iconic architectural materials, Marvel Travertine captures the aesthetic appeal of natural stone with such authenticity, but with all the functional benefits of technically advanced porcelain. In three sublimely subtle tones, including White, Sand and Pearl, Marvel Travertine creates a calming and contemporary canvas against which to feature furniture, fixtures and fittings.
In Vein Cut and Cross Cut finishes, this collection has a dual identity, providing two sensuous surfaces for different design directions and a variety of settings, including residential, commercial and hospitality. Vein Cut, which is more akin to traditional Travertine, exposes linear streaks in the pattern, whereas Cross Cut reveals more distinct colour variation adding a greater dimension of depth to designs.
As well as a wide range of tile and extra-large slab formats for wall and floor applications, plus 20 mm pavers for use outdoors, the Marvel Travertine Series also features an extensive collection of Decor Tiles and Mosaics. With such depth and breadth of sizes, surfaces and thicknesses, Marvel Travertine provides an architectural system with which to fulfil the most contemporary designs.
Further details and specifications for the Minoli Marvel Travertine series can be found here within the Marvel range section of our website.
Minoli Boost Stone
Building on the already successful Boost series, the Boost Stone range of rectified Italian porcelain tiles is inspired by limestone extracted from the French Pyrenees. Manufactured using the highest-grade materials, the exquisite attention to detail in production reproduces the natural look and inherent irregularities of stone with exacting fidelity.
Depending on the nature of the space and design intent, Boost Stone comes in a variety of ten tempting organic tints. These span from deep, indulgent and opulent tones such as Tobacco and Tarmac, through to paler palettes of Pearl and Ivory that amplify both space and light. With careful balance and contrast, the diversity of tone-on-tone combinations lend themselves to so many architectural applications.
Another defining feature of this series is the sheer diversity of format, with most colourways featuring up to ten different dimensions ranging from standard tile sizes, through to 120/278 slabs that offer uninterrupted coverage from floor to ceiling. All colours also come with a variety coordinating modern mosaics and delightful décor designs.
This sublime collection can be paired with complementary outdoor tiles creating contemporary continuity between interior and exterior living spaces. These tiles for exterior applications feature higher ant-slip ratings, are resistant to extreme temperatures and weather conditions, and are of 20mm thickness for extra durability.
Full technical details for the extensive Boost Stone series are available on our website here.
In the next article in this Connected-Living series, we’ll showcase collections that emulate the pebble patterns of the most sought-after sedimentary rock, as famed for its use in classic Milanese architecture.
