4 ideas and styles for the kitchen

It is often the central space of the house and the one on which most attention is focused, together with the living room, when it comes to furnishing and characterizing it. The kitchen is the room that best represents the home for all of us, and it is not always easy to design. Before thinking about colours and furnishings, it’s important to choose materials and, besides aesthetics, there’s one fundamental feature that should not be underestimated: surface hygiene and safety!

Many of Panaria Ceramica's collections are part of Protect®, an exclusive line of extremely high-performance antimicrobial floor and wall coverings in porcelain stoneware. The Protect® ceramic surfaces have a true antimicrobial shield of silver ions integrated into the tiles that eliminates up to 99.9% of bacteria from floor and wall surfaces that’s  always active, 24 hours a day, day and night. The surfaces are therefore ideal for an environment in which well-being is not only experienced through food, but also through the spaces in which we prepare and consume it.

Concrete effect

Panaria’s concrete effect surfaces are highly contemporary. Those who prefer Mediterranean atmospheres with material looks can choose cement tiles that enable you to create very visually striking graphic elements. Or, for a compact, essential environment, characterised by a minimalism that enhances pure forms, you can opt for less processed surfaces featuring marble, stone and terracotta grit, blended into a cement-based mixture.

La Matière  showcases warm and welcoming mediterranean hues, presented in six complementary shades that can be freely combined. These colours embody the distinctive texture and chromatic characteristics of pigmented raw earth. Alongside the modern and bright tones, there are warm and earthy colours that infuse the collection with a natural and contemporary allure. The trowelled finish adds a delicate grainy texture to the surface, providing a soft touch and an intense visual effect.

With six interior formats, three exterior formats and three finishes, La Matière offers the possibility to create environments with seamless aesthetic continuity. Whether it's indoor or outdoor, this collection can effortlessly cater to the diverse areas of residential or commercial projects. 

Stone effect

For those who love the stone effect, Panaria’s collections offer soft shades and bolder versions, ideal for characterising cooking areas and kitchen tops with elegance and contemporary style. Porcelain stoneware is also environmentally friendly and guarantees optimal hygiene and durability. The surface texture is perfectly uniform and, thanks to Panaria’s leading production technology, it also offers perfect graphic effects, exactly like natural stone. Last but not least, porcelain stoneware kitchen tops are not afraid of water, keep their colour and are ideal for sinks and basins. 

Stone Trace features five colour variants: from the light, bright shades of Glade to the minimal grey tones expressed by Creek and Abyss, to the warmer shades of beige seen in Crest, and finally Hollow: a version that adds rust-coloured accents to a dark charcoal base. Available in 60x120 cm, 120x120 cm and 120x278 cm sizes, the latter being particularly effective as cladding for wall effects that guarantee seamless design and the option of dressing architectural spaces in a natural-looking second skin. Large and ultra-thin slabs: just 6mm thick, these slabs can be laid over existing floors, making easy space renovation possible, quick installation without any dismantling required. 

Chromatic look

Love colour? The selection is vast thanks to Panaria’s collections, ranging from fluid, light colours inspired by the ‘50s to more symmetrical and geometric designs, contemporary interpretations of jungle style and floral motifs and sophisticated high stylistic impact patterns. Fresh, versatile colour palettes and textures produced on porcelain stoneware, suitable for any room in the home, from the living room to the dining area as well as the bedroom and bathroom. Panaria collections furnish spaces with playful combinations capable of recreating an evocative ambiance, vintage, classic or contemporary. 

Glam, is a brand new collection of laminated porcelain stoneware slabs from just 3.5 mm thick, reinforced with fibreglass for unparalleled strength. Featuring 14 different decorative themes, ranging from floral compositions that reveal a natural dimension beyond common spaces, to geometric textures for more minimal and essential styles. All individual Glam modules are available in 50x100 cm sizes and are meticulously studied by Panaria Ceramica, making spaces unique with a cutting-edge range that can become the key feature of the living area.

Wood effect

Those who are passionate about the wood effect can opt for Panaria's collections that recreate the finest types of wood in natural, realistic surfaces using modern digital technology. The grains emphasised by the many, varied colour tones and the material effects produced on porcelain stoneware are ideal for recreating the characteristic warmth of wood but, more importantly, ensure high knock and scratch resistance. Unlike classic floorboards, it does not require any special maintenance or cleaning products.

Kairos is life, time, action. A collection able to crystallise the experience and the essence of a natural material such as wood and highlight, in this way, the brand’s ability to read the moment, the perfect instant and return it in the form of matter.
A porcelain stoneware collection able to interpret the flavour of oak planks at the maximum of their aesthetic maturation, when the wood fibres turn to warm and enveloping shades, giving off all the charm of its continuous evolution through a complex texture that overlaps knots, scratches, engravings and cracks stuccoed with a singular level of realism.               

Complete and versatile, proposed with a thickness of 9.5 mm and 20 mm so as to be ideal for indoor and outdoor use, Kairos is enriched by a set of special pieces and by two distinct decorative lines and it is characterised by a wide combination from concrete to stone, from marble to metal.                                                                  

Whether you’re looking for large, colourful cladding solutions or small, decorative cement tiles, or whether you’re creating a workbench or a kitchen backsplash with unique and functional stone-effect slabs, Panaria offers infinite solutions for furnishing and renovating your kitchen. All without having to sacrifice the high-performance of durable, hygienic porcelain stoneware that’s stain resistant, antimicrobial and doesn’t release harmful substances, even when in contact with heat. And, last but not least, it’s easy to clean.
