Intarsi Rafaello

Description

A masterful blend of historical Italian art and cutting-edge porcelain technology, the Intarsi Rafaello tile serves as the definitive geometric inlay centerpiece for the modern, high-performance interior. This is not a simple repetition of pattern; it is a meticulously composed, symmetrical masterpiece designed to ground a space with texture and structural elegance.

The Intarsi Rafaello takes inspiration from ancient symmetrical marquetry and marble inlay, where distinct materials were hand-cut and pieced together to create mesmerizing floor and wall designs. We have modernized this concept, utilizing a unique 3D manufacturing process to produce a rectified 24×48 large-format tile that perfectly replicates the tactile variation of six different inlaid stone and wood textures, including sophisticated marble veining, rich wood grain, and sleek terrazzo effects.

The finish is where technical engineering meets pure design. The Intarsi Rafaello features a specialized Satin-Touch surface. This provides a soft, sophisticated sheen that highlights the intricate 3D geometric details without the harsh glare of a high-polish finish, offering a matte, textured feel that is incredibly inviting.

Engineered to meet the industry standard DCOF > 0.42 (Dynamic Coefficient of Friction), the Intarsi Rafaello complies with requirements for level interior spaces expected to be walked upon when wet. The non-polished surface ensures that performance and architectural style are perfectly balanced without compromising standard slip resistance guidelines.
