The Tamashi tile collection aims to obtain the quintessence of wood: the image of cleanliness comes from the absence of knots and the choice of dense, fine and regular veins, resulting in a seamless, linear and fluid surface. The result is a modern, elegant and natural simplicity that stems from a skillful graphic and colour balance.

The inspiration behind the new Terra tile collection captures an essential and primitive aesthetic that evokes the inherent qualities of nature—resilience, irregularity, and uniqueness. The materials, sun-dried and transformed by natural forces, embody a lived-in appearance, narrating the passage of time and brimming with memories and evocative elements.

Terra Salina, with its dry, alkaline look, white with greyish hints. Terra Calma, in green hues, transmitting mellow and balanced vibrations. Terra Arsa, intense and sunburnt, like the Mediterranean’s warm soil. Terra Dolce, with its gentle, pinkish-hued look. These are the four natural, discreet hues used for the Terra tile collection colour palette. Four hazy, delicate, chromatically compatible colours which enable you to create unique and original compositions.

The Argilla tile collection is an expression of Gigacer’s research into new aesthetic aspirations, where the material takes the lead in any chromatic scheme, designed for contemporary living.

This is the story of a journey...
A magical journey into the fascinating Japanese culture, marked by harmony, dimensions that mute as time goes by. A culture characterized by many contradictions that identify the uniqueness and elegance. Balance between fast-paced innovation and traditions. In Japan, arts, traditions and rituals coexist harmoniously with technology, progress together with the speed in which it all happens. Knowledge is the key word that has marked the creation of this series. Ours was a love at first sight. From the vision of a house in the countryside near Kyoto, externally coated with burnt wood led to a charming and engaging emotion then fueled by the discovery:
Yaki or Shou Sugi Sugi Ban is an ancient Japanese technique, which consists in the carbonization of wood planks, making them waterproof and fireproof, still used in modern architecture.
The elegance of the Japanese master craftsmanship has the ability to make valuable materials which are poor, is definitely one of the large differences between our culture and theirs.
The result of this process has us excited and to say the least, fascinated.
We reinterpreted the fruit of this technique through Yaki in four different colors and two different surfaces, an opaque and a resin on a format of 15x120cm.
