Revered in architectural and interior design circles, the esteemed Spanish firm, Cosentino, is noted for crafting some of the most advanced, refined materials globally. Now, New Zealand’s renovation enthusiasts and home renewal mavens have the opportunity to access Cosentino’s inspiring range, tailored to contemporary taste preferences, changing design trends, and emerging technologies.
Cosentino excels in the creation of elegant kitchen countertops, functional wet areas, and beloved outdoor spaces—all embodying a seamless blend of modernity, sustainability, and a nod to traditional design aesthetics.
On cue with ever-evolving design preferences, Cosentino has taken initiative to introduce two new collections of sophisticated design solutions, marking the first expansion of its Silestone portfolio in two years. Silestone, renowned for its formidable resilience, almost zero porosity, and resistance to moisture, stains, acids, and scratches, is not only robust but aesthetically compelling, offering myriad visual and functional benefits to homes.
The ‘Le Chic’ collection by Silestone, a junction of fashion and design, is expertly curated and brings historic French architectural elements and Victorian aesthetics to the forefront. It exudes opulence with metallic accents, dynamic veining, and robust colors. The ‘Parisian Bleu’ is interspersed with ochre-toned antique stonework, while ‘Versailles Ivory’ comes in luminous, golden-flecked white. In contrast, the volcanic-inspired ‘Bohemian Flame’ fuses subtle sinuous veins with coppery inlays, promising to add a touch of imperial grandeur to any interior.
Conversely, the ‘Urban Crush’ collection turns to the modern narrative, drawing its muses from industrial design and bustling city aesthetics, offering textures reminiscent of limestone, concrete, and other architecturally significant elements. The collection includes the raw appeal of ‘Concrete Pulse’, the rich sandstone ‘Brass Relish’, and the striking ‘Cinder Craze’, exuding a certain depth and intensity to any space.
The adept fusion of design and technology is evident in these collections indicating another leap in Cosentino’s advanced manufacturing techniques. Both collections consolidate Cosentino’s commitment to environmentally-friendly production through patented HybriQ+ technology and utilization of 20% recycled raw materials. Remarkably, the manufacturing process recycles 99% of the water used and relies solely on renewable energy sources. This is a testament to sustainability that not only instils peace of mind in homeowners but augments the serene ambience that these sophisticated, elegant materials offer to any space.
Cosentino’s latest offering transcends mere surface allure and holds the potential to serve as a transformative element in your home.
