Summer living: décor ideas for your home by the sea

Décor ideas for a home next to the sea

From the warm, multi-coloured hues of the houses looking onto the north of the Tyrrhenian Sea, reminiscent of the marvellous Cinque Terre area, to the marine shades of the homes in the South, with their simple, bright, minimal design!
As we head down towards the Mediterranean, materials become more porous and attractively tactile, and colours take on shades of white and blue, complemented by the fragrance of the lemon trees, the shimmering hues of the olives and the sparkle of the waves…
All this is the SUMMER mood, a collection of wall tiles and porcelain stoneware that perfectly portrays the Italian summer landscape, with surfaces that are supremely expressive in terms of colour and material.

Décor ideas for a home near the sea

Homes inland have a more rustic style, taking on the shapes and colours of the countryside and rural architectures.
Here we can imagine the Terracotta, Oliva and Brezza wall tiles from the Summer collection, teamed with the Roots wood-effect stoneware on the floor, an evergreen that slots seamlessly into the indoor and outdoor landscape.  

This is a collection conceived to bring nature indoors, perfectly recreating the appearance of oak on stoneware, and guaranteeing beauty, safety and performance even outdoors, thanks to the OUT R 11 tiles, ideal for creating connections and embellishing courtyards, outdoor areas, gazebos and pool edges with the beauty of wood.

Décor ideas for a home by the sea with an iconic, statuesque allure

Some beautiful new options come from a trip around the coast from Liguria to Tuscany, where the marble quarries are the expression of a glorious season of art.

These quarries dug out into the rock inspire interiors of statuesque beauty, brimming with life, such as Nativa stone-effect stoneware, with its technological surfaces with a naturally striking appearance.

This stone-effect stoneware is characterised by endless veining effects that appear to conceal traces of minerals, sediment going back thousands of years and particularly expressive splashes of colour, especially in the large and extra-large sizes. Their beauty comes in different finishes: Satin, with a silky appearance, the more material, matt R9, R10 with impressive grip and R11 for outdoors.
