TERRACOTTA
Facades
The technique of ventilated façades is born from the demand to integrate three essential aspects of modern terracotta architecture: efficiency, rationality and aesthetics. At the core of our work resides the new project conception where the importance of the image is implemented through a more conscious and attentive look, aimed at containing energy consumption and optimizing comfort.
COLORS AND SURFACES
In Florence the color of terracotta is red, same as the cupola of Florence Dome and the roofs of the town. Near Venice terracotta is ochre as the shade of the bricks used over centuries to construct homes of that region.
Faraway, in Beijing, the ancient streets of the town are paved with small tiles in a light grey color, manufactured by firing clay in traditional kilns heated by wood, a process which has been used for thousands of years and which is still working today.
During the realization of its projects Palagio has learnt, in a long process of research, to reproduce the terracotta colors known in different places of the world. Through the addition of metal oxides and the calibrated dosing of other clays during our mixing process, a range of colors can be obtained which can always give an inspiration to the Designer for the realization of his project.
SPECIAL AND CUSTOMS SHAPE
When it comes to the selection of materials, individuality and sustainable aspects play an increasingly important role. With tile facades from PALAGIO, you can create properties that are not only state-of-the-art at present but for which this is ensured for decades to come due to the sustainable materials. In addition to the numerous positive properties of the brick material, the system behind it also offers a large number of advantages that PALAGIO has over many other providers.

The use of ventilated cladding in terracotta grants considerable advantages.
