Tuet: Arpa’s first deep surface

The new ribbed surface is inspired by the Piedmontese reedbeds and highlights the contrast between light and shadow

Arpa Industriale is exploring new texture design by introducing the Deep Surfaces. Enhancing the ability of giving movement and depth to the space, this new family of materials confirms the company’s pledge to develop both innovation and aesthetics.

Tuet is the first deep surface by Arpa. Through the elegance of movement and the variety of applications, this new creation for interiors allows to discover all the charm of ribbed design.

Inspired by the Piedmontese reedbeds running along the Tanaro river, Tuet gives projects the intensity of a dark and light structure. The light, immersing itself into the waves of the deep surface, transforms each furnishing scene into a work of vibrant contrasts.

The space is articulated by the deep geometric rhythm of the “reeds” which animate the design creativity both visually and tactilely. On the one hand, the wood grains enhance the dark and light contrast, on the other, they define a soft and pleasantly undulating tactile experience. The overall result is a dance of sinuous textures, where the repeated “twirls” of Tuet’s reliefs form an atmosphere of natural and dynamic well-being.

Tuet’s waves can be arranged in both directions, favouring different sensations of movement and spatial extension: from the bathroom to the kitchen to the living room. Giving an enveloping and balanced energy to environments, Tuet easily adapts to different styles by being combined with two new decors, 4644 Caravella Light and 4645 Caravella Dark. With a 1.5 mm thickness, Tuet is suitable for vertical applications.
