ITALGRES AT CERSAIE 2024: INTERNATIONAL TRENDS FOR MIAMI PROJECTS
The international Cersaie fair, held annually in Bologna, Italy, has established itself as one of the most important events in the porcelain sector. This year, Cersaie brought together top manufacturers, designers, and architects, offering a unique space to discover the latest trends in porcelain tiles.
For Italgres, participating in this fair is a valuable opportunity to see firsthand the innovations that will shape the future of design, especially for projects in Miami, where quality and aesthetics are crucial.
Cersaie 2024 provided us with a rich experience full of discoveries that will undoubtedly inspire our upcoming projects. One of the standout trends was the introduction of large-format porcelain tiles, such as those measuring 63” x 63”. These tiles allow for the creation of spacious, flowing environments by eliminating visible joints that typically limit the sense of continuity in a space. This type of flooring not only offers a modern aesthetic but also makes maintenance and cleaning easier, which is essential for projects in Miami, where the climate can be challenging.
Another trend that caught our eye was the use of terracotta, a classic material that is regaining popularity for its ability to add warmth and a natural touch to spaces. Terracotta tiles, with their rich palette of colors and textures, are perfect for creating cozy atmospheres and are also highly durable and weather-resistant. This material is an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor projects, bringing an authentic character and a connection to nature.
Additionally, we found a variety of boutique pieces in pastel shades that add personality and freshness to designs. These soft colors are perfect for giving a unique touch to spaces that want to stand out with a more playful style. The small pastel tiles offer surprising versatility, allowing for creative combinations that can revitalize any environment, from bathrooms to kitchens and living areas.
During the fair, we had the chance to talk with our suppliers’ representatives, who shared detailed information about their latest innovations. This direct connection helped us better understand the features and benefits of each product, enabling us to offer our customers the best options available in the market.
Beyond large formats and textures, safety in outdoor areas was a central theme at Cersaie. We noticed a growing interest in anti-slip porcelain tiles, ideal for areas like gardens, and copings pools. These products meet the highest quality standards and provide peace of mind to our clients, ensuring that their spaces are safe without sacrificing style. In a climate like Miami’s, where outdoor spaces are essential, these solutions become a necessity.
Cersaie 2024 has left us with a wealth of ideas and proposals that we are eager to share. There’s no doubt that this year will be key in continuing to set trends in project design in Miami. We invite you to visit our showroom in Miami and discover how these new collections can provide the perfect inspiration for your next project.
