These are the trends that we have seen in Cevisama 2018
Cevisama, the most important fair in the ceramic sector in Spain, has just closed its doors and leaves us wanting to incorporate into the houses that we build in Jávea the trends that we have seen in it.
Do you want to know what they are? We tell you.
1.Light Marbled
According to Cevisama, this style “is characterized by a series of mottled surfaces and subtle veining”. That is, marbled materials, inspired by nature. This means that terrazzo returns as pavement, but yes, updated and revisited. And much more elegant than the one we have at grandma's house ????
2. Tile Deco
A trend that we have already seen in recent years and that is still going strong. In it, the precious character stands out, with a strong retro look, which points, as the Habitat Trends Observatory says, to “art noveau and art deco of the 20s and 30s but also to the English arts & crafts movement”. It is materialized, for example, in geometric print tiles or with exotic motifs, which would look great in commercial premises in the historic center of Jávea and as a counterpoint to very contemporary spaces.
3. Dark & Watercolor
Totally sophisticated, the Dark & Color trend is committed to theatricality in spaces, with gradients, watercolor effects and play of shadows. Ideal for large spaces to which you want to give a slightly dreamlike touch.
4. Brutalist Style
Well, that, a bit of a “gross” tendency. That is to say, with raw products, with a coarse appearance and inspired by geology. It is materialized in XL format flooring or wall tiles, with large veined stones, imitation granite, etc. We imagine it in public buildings where you want to take a little risk, aesthetically speaking. Also in contemporary style villas with incredible sea views.
5. Restore materials
One of our favorite trends, which advocates a return to the origins, to the roots, to a “practical, sober and restrained” architecture, according to the Observatory of Habitat Trends. We can make it our own with the use of baked clay, so local, in home renovations in the historic center of Jávea or in country houses that want to give a Mediterranean air and more in keeping with the typical constructions of the Marina Alta.
6. Mid-Century Colors
Another trend that revisits the past, this time looking back to the 50s and 60s. With the aesthetics of the mid-century style, we see tiles in pastel colors and geometric shapes, which we imagine combined with pieces of vintage furniture.
As you can see, a bit of everything: more daring aesthetic proposals along with other more feasible ones that we could easily incorporate into a home in Jávea. And you, which trend did you like the most?
