The home is a symbol of family, serenity, intimacy, tradition, warmth, and togetherness. Sometimes just a simple object, an aroma, a color or a material are enough to bring us back to the ethereal dimension, beyond space and time, which we call home. This is the magical power of terracotta, used as a flooring material for more than 4000 years. In Italy, where the Etruscans exalted the characteristics of this material thanks to the peculiarities of the territory, terracotta found its ultimate expression in Umbria. Here it has been used for hundreds of years to make pottery for wine and oil, imbued with the tastes and aromas of the Umbrian hills and landscapes.
Color
Veiled White MayaÂ’s Veil separates us from the essence of knowledge. Tearing it away is the objective of man. Perhaps this is why the Umbrian terracotta artisans, hundreds of years ago, used glazing so assiduously: perhaps they wanted to hide the true essence of terracotta, or its intimate knowledge. We decided to veil the white: we conceal everything, to reveal everything Terraviva The Earth is alive, the Earth is life. It is a sign of prosperity. It is hope and security. It is abundance. She is the mother of everything, even of the terracotta bricks, characterized by the most famous color of earth in the world, that of the Umbrian-Tuscan hills. The Earth tells a story, influences, teaches. The earth is ours.
Form
Trapezium The versatility of cotto allows us to give you the possibility to choose from an incredible number of shapes. It is a material that more than others lends itself to experimentation and thinking outside the lines, loved unconditionally precisely because it can satisfy everyone. The trapezoid is the shape that embodies this concept to perfection: it is a hexagon cut in half, so it gives the possibility to create two-colored hexagons; but it also allows you to create incredible patterns that are only apparently irregular, hiding their true nature to a distracted observer. Free your creativity: with Fangorosa there are no limits.
