Reading time: minutes

An original aesthetic defined by small details and tactile inclusions is now expressed in a new 40x120 cm size, featuring new colored plain tiles, 3D structures and Touch decors. Ragno Ceramiche’s new Stratford Wall tiles and the slimline thickness slabs in 120x278 cm and 120x120 cm sizes are amongst the new additions to a series with coordinated materials for all its intended uses.

Richer, more individual designs, styled to meet the needs of residential and commercial locations where material effects, sizes and finishes intersect and alternate to explore the love of decoration central to the contemporary home.

The Stratford collection by Ragno Ceramiche embraces this trend with versatile design solutions ranging from large to small, furnishing interiors in an impeccable style with natural overtones.

White, Grey, Clay, Red and Blue,five colors for exploring all the true beauty of concrete,are offered in the new 40×120 cm rectified size with slimline thickness of 6 mm.Another new addition to the Stratford Wall collection is the Resina 3D Structure – in White, Grey, Clay and Blue with thickness of 8 mm and a texture with a three-dimensional effect that creates a striking depth with its slender relief lines.

Ragno’s new wall coverings give rooms a sense of completeness, through multiple in-line decorations that facilitate installation as a block of color or the creation of boiserie panels for alternation with the solid-color plain tiles, for highly individual design schemes in line with the latest interior design trends.

In the Ragno laboratories, two-dimensional printing and relief decorations are combined in a single step, for a truly impressive state-of-the-art result called the Touch Technology, applied in this case to the sophisticated decors of Stratford Wall, characterised by unusually deep textures and color variations, with a great wealth of graphic and chromatic details.

Botanic textures dominate the Paradise Decor, comprising two panels, A+B , in Freddo, Caldo and Red versions, while geometrical motifs feature in the Icon decor,with just one pattern in Freddo or Caldo.

The relief effect of all these ceramic products is visually attractive and has a pleasant ‘feel’; hence the name of the Touch Technology, which enhances surfaces with added glossy or matt grits.

A number of different decorative effects can be achieved in a single step with a mix of materials: glossy, matt, solid with a uniform application rate, or ice effect with uneven distribution of the vitreous material.

These solutions, only suitable for use on walls, can all be matched with the floor tiles in the range and the impressive array of decors,in which hexagonal tiles – in solid colors or with the addition of dynamic white patterns – alternate with the Foglia and Crochet three-dimensional structures, with their delicate, light designs, and large panels with botanical motifs, to add an exclusive touch to any interior.

Stratford is one of the most complete, best structured Ragno Ceramiche series with a variety of colors, sizes and decors, also available in XT20 outdoor version with thickness of 2 cm.

A matt, concrete-effect surface with a compact, tactile look is offered in five neutral shades – Beige, Clay, White, Grey and Dark Grey – and three trendy colors – Red, Green and Blue – all available in the new 120×278 cm slab size which expands the apparent size of continuous surfaces together with its submultiples 120×120 and 60×120 cm in 6 mm thickness. The offering continues with the sizes in standard thickness: 75×150, 75×75, 60×120, 60×60 and 30×60 cm.

Produced from 40% recycled material, the entire porcelain stoneware wall and floor tile collection has a sustainable spirit, and is also an intrinsically eco-friendly choice, since ceramics have an extremely low environmental impact and are manufactured in accordance with all European regulations.

Choosing Stratford means not only surrounding yourself with scenes from nature but also embracing a truly green lifestyle.
