Sfumato

VASELLI 2024

Grooves carved into the material, channels that form images and set up rhythms with the sinuous veins of the stone. The shadows that fade delicately deceive the joints between the tiles and recall classic atmospheres, suggested by close grooves running across the slabs. Sfumato generates complex designs through the use of a few different types of incised tiles: a smooth tile, a ribbed  tile and a tile that fades (“sfuma”) from flat to ribbed, from which the collection takes its name; the checked tile completes the range, offering further solutions and greater movement to the composition, opening the way to combinations and new directions.
