Barene
The Saltmarsh of the Venetian lagoon is the source of inspiration for this floor. The thin sand islands that resurface with tides, shaping smooth designs of land and sea. The three modules that make up this inlaid floor are embellished with a filled incision of liquid metal. By combining the modules as you like, you can recreate the play of water that blends into the earth, the metal reflects light like the water on the lagoon.

Firmamento
The golden stars of the firmament, adorning the Lunetta of Torre dell’Orologio at Piazza San Marco, fall metaphorically to the ground and are woven into the three-dimensional and polychrome games of the Basilica’s marbles. The black and white marble and the noble antique oak wood, draws the constellations geometries joining together through the shining brass stars.

Laguna
This modular floor evokes the Venice Lagoon water slow flow. This is made possible by the optical illusion created by a new concept of herringbone floor. Instead of composing the floor by joining the vertices of the axes, they are assembled at their midpoint. The vertical lines of the joints, even if parallel to each other, seem to taper towards, evoking the endless swaying of the water.

Merletto
The technique of the famous Burano lace is the origin of this inlay, composed of two warps: one of brass and one of wenge, which are woven together, creating two levels of visual perception, a typical characteristic of Burano lace. The lightness of the sinuous volutes of the lace overlaps the inserts design.

Moresco
The influence of the Moorish—or Saraceno—style in Venetian architecture and art is present since ancient times, when marbles were transported to Venice from the East. More than anything else, the richness was given by the exchange and overlapping of the Venetian style to the Moorish style. This design, inspired by Venetian stuccoes, then turns into a marble inlay on wood that can be composed like a precious majolica from the Alhambra, bearing witness to the uniqueness of a millenary City, which has always understood the richness of cultural exchange with others, and that made it the center of our Mediterranean sea for centuries.

Redin
The repair of fishing nets is the origin of the typical laces texture in Venice Lagoon island of Pellestrina. “Redin” is a thin warp of threads that connects the empty spaces between the forms of lace. This chain of threads is embellished with gems of polychrome marbles transforming it into a fine carpet.

San Marco
The twisted mosaics of the pavement of the Basilica di San Marco in Venice are here reinterpreted through new materials, such as blond oak wood, statuary Carrara and black Marquinia marbles, and are embellished with geometric brass highlights. The optical effect created, reproduces the undulating magnification of water, fundamental element of the history of Venice.

Soprarizzo
The precious Venetian Soprarizzo velvet that adorns the walls of the city’s patrician palaces, slips from the walls and turns into a marble and precious wood chiseled carpet. As in a trick with mirrors, the perception of the walls is transferred to our feet to wrap us in the complex manufacture of floral inlays.

Torcello
The design of this inlay comes from a detail of one of the ancient mosaics that decorate the Basilica di Torcello, an island in the Venice Lagoon. The optical effect is emphasized through the wise use of materials such as red rosewood with a design that creates a three-dimensional effect through its own natural grains. This optical effect is emphasized by the addition of three materials: a brass frame that encloses a black and white marble detail.
