LARGE-FORMAT TILES & STONE CLADDING
THE POETRY OF STONE
A bespoke project by Marmo Arredo transforms an Italian townhouse into an elegant composition of surfaces and materials.
There is a silent beauty that flows through the material when it is treated with respect, intuition, and mastery. It is the beauty that inhabits a private residence in Cittadella, northern Italy, the result of a refined renovation in which Marmo Arredo has interpreted natural stone as a design gesture, transforming it into a living, narrative, and architectural element.
The project blends discreetly into the heritage of the townhouse, preserving the building’s original floors and combining history with new materials that harmonise beautifully with the space.
The kitchen, sculpted in Quartzite Taj Mahal, reveals itself as an elegant and functional monolith: the countertop with peninsula and integrated sink, the wall cladding, and the shelves are all made from the same material, creating a visual and tactile flow that blends naturalness with precision.
In the bathrooms, the material becomes the hero: in the master bathroom, polished Calacatta Vagli Oro, book- matched, envelops walls and floor, while the vanity top, crafted from a single block, houses two seamlessly carved sinks, enhancing the marble’s veining in a continuous, uninterrupted surface. A similar solution defines the second bathroom, clad in Calacatta Borghini, also book-matched, with a monolithic top that hosts sinks as if they were natural forms emerging from the stone. In the third bathroom, the chromatic contrast between polished Nero Portoro Imperiale and a freestanding cylindrical Calacatta sink with fluted finish introduces a more sculptural and a bold note.
In the night area as well, stone discreetly and coherently accompanies the furnishings: storage units are completed with Calacatta Monet tops. In the living area, two custom- made tables express the project’s most creative spirit. The first, in Cipollino Rosso from the Chiglia collection developed in collaboration with Stefano Boeri Interiors; the second, in Classic Travertine, stands out for its base sculpted from a single block into two adjoining, fused cylinders, with a cross- cut finish that traces the horizontal veining of the travertine in a refined material interplay. The top, with a vein-cut finish, lightens the composition, creating a visual balance between weight and suspension.
In every space, Marmo Arredo demonstrates its ability to transform stone into language, blending artisanal expertise and design sensitivity into a poetic vision of space, where every surface becomes a story, and every vein a part of an intimate, measured, and timeless narrative.
