MATERIALS
MARBLE, TRAVERTINE AND NATURAL STONE
Marbles, travertines and stones are valuable, functional and durable materials. Their aesthetic properties get better with age. Marble and stone help to limit indoor pollution and do not emit toxic substances into the environment. Natural stone, which is formed millions of years ago, makes floors unique and inimitable.
Choose the original, not a copy.
Choose the real, not the fake.
Choose the glamorous marble used in history from the best architects.
A house finished in marble or travertine is environmentally and eco- friendly. Natural stone, an excellent building material, is in fact the biocompatible material par excellence.
The different minerals that make it up characterise its colour and appearance.
