Mirage @ CERSAIE 2024
International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings - Bologna, September 23-27
Mirage presents the latest collections and projects, with a special focus on sustainability and contemporary design trends.
This event represents a perfect showcase for unveiling new collections and, most importantly, for introducing the ReSource project, a product line designed to meet the growing demands for sustainable living. The ReSource Project is the heart of Mirage’s offerings at Cersaie this year and marks a significant step forward in the company’s mission towards a more ecological and environmentally conscious future. It stands out for its use of over 60% pre-consumer recycled materials, transforming what was once industrial waste into valuable raw materials.
The ReStone and ReConcrete collections, part of this project, represent a new approach to ceramic surface design, characterised by eco-design that aligns with principles of sustainability and environmental respect.
In particular, ReStone reinterprets the timeless elegance of natural stone, drawing inspiration from the beauty of Limestone and Chauvigny Stone, but with a modern sensibility that emphasises environmental care. ReConcrete, on the other hand, offers a contemporary take on the texture of polished concrete, presenting surfaces that combine materiality with refinement. Both collections are aimed at professionals and consumers who are mindful of both design and the environmental impact of their choices.
Alongside the ReSource project, Mirage introduces other significant innovations, including Atelier Mirage, a true creative laboratory involving collaborations with some of the most prestigious players in international architecture and interior design, with the goal of pushing the boundaries of stylistic research.
Among the collections presented within this Atelier Mirage, Nagomi, designed by Hadi Teherani, takes centre stage.
Nagomi translates the harmony between space and design into forms, elevating ceramics to an aesthetic gesture of profound environmental sensitivity. Furthermore, by incorporating a significant percentage of glass derived from recycled cathode tubes—once the heart of monitors and television screens—Mirage, with this collection, pays homage to a sustainability narrative that intertwines past, present, and future.
Another example of this synergy between nature and innovation is Plumage, by Alfonso Femia, which explores the beauty of feathers through a fusion of technology and natural inspiration. Finally, Indomita, created with Letizia Ballotti, celebrates local art and talent, with a design that combines utility and beauty.
Also at Cersaie, Mirage expands its catalogue with three new collections that further enrich its core product range
Onyce, a refined reinterpretation of onyx in porcelain stoneware, harmonising with the aesthetic and functional needs of contemporary spaces. Izumi, three quality selections in three colour expressions, each designed to harmonise with various interior styles, from modern rustic homes to more minimalist and elegant spaces. Gyliane, an interpretation of vintage woods in porcelain stoneware, with a distinctive and authentic character.
