LUCE DI CARRARA BENCH Marble wall tiles

Bench refers to the zigzag shape left by the missing stone blocks cut out by the machines on the quarry walls.‎ From five pieces of different widths and angles, the studio created three slabs that form seamless patterns.‎ The ability to lay the pieces makes it almost impossible to notice where one begins and another ends.‎ The stones can be placed in different order and thanks to this repetition and alternation, each customer can obtain a unique wall and result.‎ The versatility of the slabs allows them to be placed facing left of right, creating sharp transformations depending on the way in which they embrace light and thus transforming the environment in which they are located.‎ Being based in the foothills of the Apuan Alps favours decades of experience in the extraction, manufacture and processing of stone for various solutions.‎ This heritage has given the company the opportunity to develop state-of-the-art production techniques, to work with beautiful natural stones and with some of the finest artisans.‎ The region is famous for being the source of one of the most celebrated stones, synonymous with the history of ancient and contemporary art.‎ After visiting one of the quarries, this unique area transformed into motifs.‎ The two patterns Bench and Reverse are inspired by the textures and shapes found in the quarry, tracing the same figures and paying homage to the local craftsmanship and history.‎ Traces textures are a tribute to the quarrying process, where man and machine work together to extract marble.‎ They leave traces of these moments and create visually inspiring scenarios.‎ Further info from manufacturer on BENCH LUCE DI CARRARA
