Tavolozza

The whole world,
as we experience it visually,
comes to us through
the mystic realm of color.
Hans Hofmann

The “Tavolozza” series is the crowning achievement of Tastardi Tile’s years of experience, work and artistic experimentation. Indeed, it contains in its simplicity and in its wide variety of colours and techniques Roberto Tastardi and the company’s history.
The pieces, all in white ceramic with regular edges, range between various pigmentations and techniques:
-The fine lithium “Craquelé” glossy crystalline surfaces, which gift the tile a “shattered ice” effect.
-The no-reflective “Matt” surfaces, which gift a delicate effect to the white, leaving a soft and elegant tint.
To complement the pigmentations and the techniques there is the “Iron” variant, with a contemporary feel, to create more sophisticated combinations
