Vshape Mattina

Vshape Mattina is a stoneware tile designed to cover a stair step with a single element. The tile emulates the look and structure of wood in a floor-board format of 30 by 120 centimeters. The curved nose is formed from one ceramic piece through a gravitational bending process during a second firing. The double firing strengthens the technical parameters, making the tile resistant to frost, slipping and cracking. The surface is textured and matte, and five color shades are offered. Vshape Mattina suits stairs, terraces, balconies and window sills, indoors and outdoors.

A filter element removes fine airborne particles. The unit connects to the internet, so functions can be updated over time and less new hardware is needed. Airo-5G suits home, travel and office use.

Marble Hexagon Tile

Marble Hexagon Tile is a natural stone covering material produced in a hexagonal format. Traditionally, marble hexagon tiles are cut with waterjets, a slow and costly process. Ionic Stone developed a technique that cuts rectangular marble tiles into hexagonal shapes using traditional diamond disc cutting. The method holds high precision in dimensions and costs a fraction of waterjet cutting, so large volumes can be produced. Each hexagon side can measure from 15 to 30 centimetres. The aim was to make hexagonal marble tiles affordable.

Karst

Karst, a modular staircase designed for Governors Island in New York, is like a solutional cave for people to see and hear the flowing water, with a water filtering system that brings the sensation of nature into the house, connecting the community of humans and water. Each module has a pocket for placing a bag of crushed oyster shells. The shells composed of calcium carbonate can react with acid rain to help neutralize acidified ocean by absorbing carbon dioxide. In the end, it is a filter system that can blur the boundary between humans and nature on Governors Island.
