Tasteful minimalism with an industrial flair is the mood of the day with Ariostea‘s CON.CREA. The collection’s Ultra slabs are now accompanied by the versatile and traditional sizes of 1,200 by 600mm, 600 by 600mm, and 600 by 300mm, enabling their use in smaller spaces, or providing an alternative to vast, uninterrupted expanses of texture.


CON.CREA takes its inspiration from brushed concrete and synthetic resin, translating the appearance onto the porcelain slabs. The calm grey-scale neutrals offer a timeless look, as the shade variation prevents spaces from looking sterile. The four Maxi Slab colours – Cloud, Earth, Ink, and Talc – are now offered in the traditional sizes and Dove Grey is available across the size collection.

There is a subtle warmth to the colour palette despite the focus on blacks, greys, and whites. A sense of depth and age enable minimalist spaces to be rich with character. CON.CREA provides a neutral backdrop for a range of styles and can be used on both the floor and wall, inside or out.


The tiles come in a thickness of 9mm, and various finishes including natural, pre-polished, and non-slip.
