Material disciplines

Material decisions made before the room is built.

Marble, textiles, acoustics, wallcoverings and custom finishes, each with named provenance and technical depth.

01 · Marble & Stone

Named quarries. Documented veins.

Calacatta and Statuario sourced directly from the Apuan quarries, with vein behaviour mapped to the light direction of the room.

Technical installation guidance for architects specifying natural stone, slabs up to 320 × 160 cm, and every slab photographed before it leaves Italy.

The ZARREDO Natural Stone Collection adds granite, travertine, onyx, limestone and quartzite, in seven finishes.

02 · Textiles & Acoustics

Woven on patterns three generations old.

Textiles from mills that have run the same structural weaves for decades, and acoustic panels that disappear visually while performing technically.

Every textile and panel arrives with its documentation: thread origin, loom, acoustic attenuation and fire classification.

03 · Wallcoverings & Finishes

Surfaces decided alongside the architecture.

Mineral, woven and custom applied finishes, matched to the stone and textile decisions already in place.

Custom colour development, artisan patina and hand-applied texture, each traced to a named studio.

Wallcoverings & Finishes
Specification starts with light, not price

Three coordinates decide every material.

They determine the quarry, the weave and the finish, not the other way around.

Light direction

How daylight and artificial light cross the room through the day, and what that does to veining, texture and colour.

Acoustic brief

The room's volume, its surfaces and the way it will be used, so absorption is designed in rather than added later.

Installation context

Substrate, dimensions, sequencing and access on site, resolved before a single slab or panel is ordered.
