The Metropolis collection is an unusual interpretation of one of the most sought-after materials in architecture: the stone. The series combines 7 unusually beautiful types of stone from different parts of the world and 3 types of unique porcelain stoneware with the effect of Murano glass.

Each color from the Metropolis collection deserves special attention:

• Calacatta Gold is a light and airy Italian marble with warm gray-gold veins. Perfect white with warm undertones.
• Royal Ivory repeats the graphics of the famous Bianco Venezia stone, it is a symbol of Venetian architecture. Flawless light background.
• Desert Beige is a warm beige stone from Croatia. Gentle brown and delicate white veins give it expressiveness.
• Absolute Silver is a light gray minimalist stone from the USA that resembles concrete.
• Graphite Dark is an austere stone with an architectural cut from the UK.
• Arcadia Brown is a legendary stone from northern Italy with contrasting color transitions.
• Imperial Black is an Italian anthracite gray limestone with prominent white cross veins.

Stone effect tiles are presented in the formats 60×120, 80×80 and 80×160 with matt finish, and tiles with the glass effect have 80×160 format and lux finish.
