Large ceramic surfaces that tell an ancient story made up of earth blended together and light mineral elements forged over time. This is what inspired the “Sensi of Casa dolce casa” collection designed by Matteo Thun for Florim Ceramiche, which takes the form of large-format tiles designed to be “touched with our eyes and caressed with our fingers.”
The collaboration between two internationally renowned Italian companies, Modena-based Florim and Milan-based Matteo Thun & Partners architecture and design firm, has produced a result that unites the harmony of nature with the power of innovation. “Sensi” expresses the perfect combination between the creative design of the Casa dolce casa – Casamood brand, and the interdisciplinary approach of Matteo Thun’ design ethos.

A perfect synthesis of innovation and sustainability, “Sensi” was developed with close attention to environmental and energy impact, making it a virtuous example of the circular economy. The collection is made of natural raw materials and 60% of recycled materials – the result of up to 100% sustainable production process, both in terms of water consumption and self-generated electricity.
“Sensi” also comprises a decorative mosaic made from recycled glass of disused TV and PC screens. Ground to a powder and mixed with water, the glass from these devices becomes a modelling material. Manufactured through a process in which human hands play a large role, the mosaic has a distinctive surface structure. Due to the nature of the recycled glass and the production cycle, every tiny chip is different from the other, resulting in a dynamic surface.

The charm of the patina of time, the strength of durability and the power of nature are the genes in the “Sensi” collection’s DNA. Its soft and natural colours and thin profiles lend a characterful touch to interiors, while the natural light effect on the pattern defines a decorative concept inspired by “non-colour” and the graininess of the earth. “Sensi” is solid, vigorous and concrete.
“Sensi is the result of dialogue, inspiration and friendship between the Florim team and Matteo Thun & Partners,” comments practice founder, Matteo Thun. “It emerges from different perspectives and does not ‘steal’ from nature, but enriches the vocabulary of construction. As architects, we are extremely happy to have found a perfect partner for porcelain stoneware slabs that meet our aesthetic and functional needs.”
