Grassi Pietre opens its showroom in Nanto (Vi) – Italy, with a display area of 300 m2, situated between the historical office site (dated 1930) the 4000 m2 production area.
The need of touching and feeling the natural stone in all its different finishes and textures has led to the creation of this space, where one can visualise the different applications of the materials and the level of craftsmanship result of one and a half centuries of stone production and installation.
Grassi Pietre invites you to Agape12 showroom in the heart of Brera for Milan Design Week 2022.
We look forward to discover together “Here. There. After.”, An exhibition of the novelties of the partner brands, which finds its thread in the family origins and in the deep bond with the territory.
From 7 to 12 June, from 10.00 to 21.00
Admission with registration
The entire project was curated by Daniel Debiasi and Federico Sandri, two local professionals in the field of product and interior design.
The large neutral open space is divided into three main stages, each raised from the ground, and aimed to reproduce different interiors settings and to show the flexibility of the stone being associated with other marble and materials.
Every detail is curated with the highest care and attention. The large sliding door at the entrance is reclaimed fir-wood, originally used as a bench for the stone cutting process.
In the first area, an irregularly installed background cladding in Grigio Alpi, set the stage for a bath produced from a solid block of stone, together with two free standing basin, part of the new “Tetide” collection.
The second area showcases three possible interiors scenarios: the living area, the kitchen and bathroom.
Grigio Alpi and Port Laurent marble cladding work as surroundings of a contemporary fireplace and niche.
A large 246,7 x 85,2 x 90,5 cm kitchen island in Arabescato Corchia with Grigio Alpi doors and basin.
The bathroom cladding in Arabescato Corchia cut in large sizes book-matched together with the Grigio Alpi. Two new over the counter basins from the “Dolina” collection next to the “Cansoli” bathtub completely cladded in marble.
The Third area mixes the beautiful aesthetic of the Grigio Alpi with the functionality of the space, dedicated to meetings and sample room.
A first, more intimate meeting room in Grigio Alpi rullato is closed with a glass wall.
A second larger meeting room is equipped with a sample room, showcasing a range of local marble from the Veneto region in Italy.
Completing the showroom area the 4 meters high “Array” wall, composed by large tiles in different colours and textures of the Vicenza Stone and its finishes, standing out from a back wall in Grigio Argento rullato.
To complete the ambient some furniture and accessories designed for the showroom, such as “Albarella” table in Breccia Aurora marble, the “Cavallino” table in Arabescato Corchia and “Goccia” a sculpture in different marble.
At the entrance, the back wall is composed of 8 large panels showing the new pattern collection by Grassi Pietre.
To decorate the space and to show the use of Vicenza stone as a contemporary cladding material.
Quarried and finished from 4 generations from the Grassi family, is strictly linked to the territory and the company history.
The Showroom expresses these values displaying all variety of Vicenza Stone quarried from the “Riviera Berica”, in the various finishes and applications.
The stone also becomes versatile besides other materials such as wood and other marble.
It was important for Grassi Pietre to show all different aspects of the stone production. From the selection of the materials, their aesthetics, and versatility.
The precision of the industrial production on different scales together with hand made workmanship wich still refines the details and the installation.
