Take advantage of our advice to transform your spaces:

Declutter and get to the point

To create a clean room, you must first get rid of the superfluous: furniture, decorative objects and other trinkets that have no real importance or use. They clutter up the space without, in the end, adding much. It is only after this crucial step that you will be able to compose sober spaces, of modern inspiration. We invite you to discover the Marie Kondo method to have a better idea on how to proceed. Natural light

It all starts with natural light . It sublimates and enriches a refined decoration, dressing the free space with a beautiful golden glow. Organize your decoration around it, since you cannot change the direction of the light coming from. Find those places that the light touches and place your furniture there. Above all, do not obstruct the light source: do not place your furniture in front of your windows or sliding doors. So bathed in light, your spaces will not need much to shine.

Tiling

Tiling is an element that takes up a considerable place in your decoration. Since you will have fewer objects in your surroundings, your tiling will stand out more , hence the importance of choosing it well . Our tip: opt for light-toned tiles that will reflect natural light and contribute to a feeling of grandeur. Naturally inspired collections with gentle chromatic variations will also help you give your surfaces that sleek and modern air.

Our pro tip: Choose large format tiles, like those from the Aster Maximum collection, to give your spaces greater fluidity.

The furniture

We were telling you: you have to separate yourself from heavy and bulky objects and furniture is the first to be affected. First, get rid of decorative furniture because it takes up too much space. But don’t worry about the decor: your uncluttered room and its few but high-quality elements will be more than enough . When it comes to storage, try attaching shelves to the wall instead in order to conserve floor space and thus make the room even larger.

Shapes and colors

Colors

To achieve a clean style, you need to choose your color palette wisely: limit yourself to a few colors only. And for those who want a more radical change, why not try the monochrome look?

Shapes

While remaining sober, bring relief and richness to your spaces by mixing different shapes and materials. Combine angular shapes with rounder or slender ones, for example. Do not hesitate to combine cold materials (metal, glass or even concrete) with warmer materials (wood or leather) to bring relief and diversity to the material.

Not to be confused with stoneware rock, porcelain stoneware is what you might call a super-material. Waterproof, incombustible, resistant to abrasions, water, heat and wear , porcelain stoneware is a material of incredible quality. Discover here all the reasons why you should adopt porcelain stoneware now:

1. Porcelain stoneware is hard and resistant

Product of a mixture of pure materials such as clay, kaolin and feldspar, porcelain stoneware combines all its strength and multiplies it when fired at high temperature (around 1,200 о C). This results in a hard material with foolproof resistance. Indeed, neither wear, nor shocks, nor chemical and climatic abrasions can overcome a porcelain stoneware tile.

2. It is waterproof

This extreme temperature firing also ensures low porosity in porcelain stoneware tiles. Thus, the rate of water absorption is quite minimal. Result: No more worries about moisture and mold, your porcelain stoneware flooring will last a long time even in the humid summers of Mauritius.

3. It is non-combustible

Porcelain stoneware is flame resistant without any problem, which makes it very safe in the event of an accident. Also useful in summer, porcelain stoneware does not absorb heat even on the hottest days. In tropical countries like Mauritius, porcelain stoneware tiles can ensure a cooler and more comfortable summer.

Porcelain stoneware tiles are also available in several colors, shapes, finishes and sizes (Granitifiandre’s Maximum collection offers you, for example, tiles ranging from 300 × 150 cm!).

The Fjord collection

Collection stone look, the cold nature of Fjord charmed us: its relaxing neutral colors, its sobriety … It can thus realize all your decorative visions, from the most refined to the most elaborate. For example, combine the color Black Fjord with a dark gray wall for a minimalist monochrome look. For a more elaborate decor, the Fjord tiles then serve as a base on which several other decorative layers are placed.

The Yosemite collection

Yosemite showcases the all-natural charm of limestone rock. It is this simplicity that delighted us: its sometimes grainy, sometimes streaked appearance gives it that much sought-after strong character. In the Lake version, the Yosemite collection is soft, in a soothing gray that lends itself perfectly to a more minimalist decor. In Park tone, fall under the spell of a slab with sanded color and texture. In the Rock version, find more raw tones and texture, which will enhance a more chic and monochrome decor.

Available in 90x90cm, 60 × 60cm and 30x60cm sizes, Yosemite tiles are all the more versatile.

The Columbus collection

Its 6 different tones have seduced us all: marrying the character of wood with surprising modern colors, we would never have thought that wood could be so versatile. And yet, Columbus offers bright tones: pink, green, blue, white. Unexpectedly, the visual rendering is of rare aesthetic value.

Best of all, these tiles can be used indoors as well as outdoors, both on walls and floors, and even for your shower ! Versatile, functional, of a rare style, the Columbus collection brings together everything we love!

The Marble Lab collection

The different tiles reproduce with precision the veins, striations and undulations typical of marble and depending on the desired style, you can direct your choice towards lines with more or less intense chromatic variation.

The Taxos tone, for example, sports soft grain and a luminous color.

Calacatta Statutario, on the other hand, has denser veins and conveys a stronger character.
