Equus pavé

PAVÉ is an indoor/outdoor porcelain stoneware wall/floor tiles. Pavé chooses a compact shaded background in a geometric shape obtained by dry pressing in the mould, going beyond the traditional rectangular and square shapes. The result is a decorative and elegant effect, enlivened at the same time in the multiplication of its ‘joints’ that recreate the stones for paving usually found around the barns and offer both a pleasant look and a non-slip surface for the horse and the jockey. Pavé recalls the beauty and textures of a precious stable. Where the refinement of movement and raw elegance are translated into surfaces. Introducing EQUUS, an exciting new project from Montreal-based tile designer and Art Director Catherine Braconnier. Inspired by her deeply rooted passion for horses, this exclusive collection was conceived around an equestrian theme explored for the first time. A combination of sophisticated geometry and timeless architectural shapes, EQUUS brings to life a collection of ceramic surfaces that is the perfect mix of urban edginess and countryside splendor. In an equestrian environment, the inspirations are endless colours and textures are everywhere. From the different colored coats worn by horses to the vast array of materials–wood, metal, straw, sand, leather, stone and cement–this is the type of setting that awakens all of the senses. Equus proposes three types of surfaces: Field, Hoof and Pavé, three lines of surfaces, three ways of interpreting matter, patterns and reliefs in weaves to look at but above all to touch.
