TURN WALL COVERING INTO WALLSCAPING WITH DÉCOR VEST BREATH
Italtile is proud to introduce Vest Décor Breath, by Italian tile specialists Atlas Concorde: a breathtaking 1,200 x 2,780mm porcelain slab created to reimagine walls with a beautifully tactile surface that invites touch and the play of light.
Décor Vest Breath forms part of Atlas Concorde’ s Vest Collection, which explores the world of wallpaper and organic fabric finishes, evoking the subtle textures and soft visual appeal of natural woven materials in highly durable and practical porcelain.
Décor Vest Breath is available in a soft, pale neutral and offers an aesthetic that pairs perfectly with wood-effect surfaces to deliver an effect that is both biophilic in design and sustainable in manufacture. The unique 3-D surface has an organic nature that will create a tranquil, elegant yet playful finish to both residential and hospitality spaces, whether classic or contemporary. A stylish personality that is timeless. A V2 rating for graphic development of faces offers moderate variations in design from tile to tile.
With 1,200 x 2,780 x 6mm dimensions, Décor Vest Breath is classified as a porcelain slab, ideal for wall applications. Due to its size, the tile requires professional transportation, handling and installation as an investment product.
Décor Vest Breath is a rectified porcelain slab with precise edges mechanically cut and machined to achieve straightness and uniformity. The result is a set of tiles with very consistent dimensions – each exactly the same size – and a precision edge that allows for tight grout joints. As this is a slab, the finished installation will offer very few grout lines, creating continuous beauty with a near-seamless and flawless look. Grout lines can be kept extremely thin, typically around 1.5mm or less.
Atlas Concorde’ s sustainable practices focus on circularity, energy efficiency, waste reduction and responsible sourcing, utilising 100 % recycled water and scrap, along with renewable energy, recyclable packaging, heat recovery in factories and air filtration to minimise environmental impact. With responsible credentials such as these, the eco-chic Vest Décor Breath range of porcelain slabs carries Italtile’ s coveted LiveGreen logo.
