Ideas for renovating your country home with porcelain stoneware
A home in the countryside has always offered a precious getaway immersed in nature, surrounded by wide-open green spaces, able to create a romantic atmosphere that delights the senses while evoking a sense of relaxation and inner peace: in the collective imagination, wide verandas and spacious courtyards, beamed ceilings, warm, soft lighting, large windows for enjoying the scenery all year round, comfortable sofas arranged around the fireplace and an atmosphere of conviviality and good humour all call to mind childhood, tradition and family memories.
Flooring is a fundamental element for any furnishing setting, and whether you’re going for a shabby chic, country or Provençal style or a more metropolitan or minimal-modernist look, the important thing is knowing how to skilfully blend furnishings and accessories that evoke the natural character of the place while ensuring the highest level of comfort.
For fans of the country and shabby chic styles, both of which are ideal for showcasing the rural spirit of this type of building, the country home should be filled with furnishings made special by the patina of time, material detailing and neutral colours.
Wood is a classic material for walls and floors alike, and to accommodate the tastes and requirements of a highly diverse audience, Casalgrande Padana offers a wide range of different solutions, some contrasting and some complementary. To create a sense of continuity among the different areas of your home, you can choose from the soft, warm beige and light brown of the porcelain stoneware tiles inspired by the natural beauty of tables in aged and antiqued wood from the Classwood, Country Wood or Ulivo collections, or the stoneware strip tiles from the Geowood, Newood, Parchi, Planks and Tavolato collections, in which the fine texture faithfully reproduces that of rare and precious wood grain.
Kitchen
In the collective imagination, the kitchen of a country house is the linchpin that all furnishing choices are made around. It is a warm and welcoming space, inviting and full of light. Whether it’s built in masonry or furnished with wood and a visible pantry, with old decapé sideboards and old-fashioned stoves, it always brings the romance of the good old days.
If you want to create a Provençal, retro or vintage style in your kitchen, Casalgrande Padana's cementine tiles are an excellent choice: they can be used for tiling the floor, where they offer a brilliant alternative to carpeting, and also for wall coverings.
On the other hand, if you prefer more of a country style, you can choose among the numerous hues of beige and light brown of the wood-effect porcelain stoneware tile collections, to make your everyday living spaces unique.
And if you want to emphasise the walls of your kitchen, you can take a bold approach by covering the surfaces with the cement-effect geometric décors from the #casalgrandepadana Beton collection.
Bathroom
After a day spent outdoors, immersed in nature, there’s nothing better than a nice relaxing bath. The embrace of well-being, enjoyed in your own private space. With their neutral colours, muted tones and decorative patterns, Casalgrande Padana’s cementine tiles are an excellent choice for flooring and coverings. Those who love the shabby chic style might also opt for the soft and warm tones of our wood-effect porcelain stoneware tiles.
Living room
Like other spaces in the home, the living room is a central location that should be furnished in harmony with the overall style of the house: the warm tones of wood-effect porcelain stoneware tiles or the muted tones of #casalgrandepadana stone-effect tiles can alternate with rocking chairs, comfy armchairs and soft sofas where you can savour peaceful moments at home during rainy countryside days in the company of a good book, the warmth of the stove, or the merry crackling of the fireplace.
Bedroom
The bedroom is a shelter where to relax. It’s one of the most important rooms in a house and needs to be planned carefully, focusing not only on space and furnishings but also on colours and finishes.
The flooring is particularly important because it’s the base on which the whole project takes shape. A country house should feature the beige, cream or grey tones wood-effect of the Country Wood or Geowood collections, or the stone effect of the Pietra Baugè or Stonewash collections by #casalgrandepadana. When paired with wallpaper and furnishings in the colours of countryside daydreams to focus attention on a particular area of the room, soft rugs, cushions and covers in colourful country patterns are perfect for use in a bedroom decorated in light tones with rediscovered shabby style or the ever-fashionable country chic style.
Exteriors
A country house is where you go on holiday with your family and welcome your friends over for long outdoor lunches or open-air dinners, so means the outdoor space cannot be neglected, be it a patio, a veranda or a large courtyard: all you need are some wicker chairs with comfortable seats and soft, colourful pillows to create a little corner of heaven.
Blending smoothly in with the lush nature of the surroundings, and constantly engaging with the scenery, in this home, the stone-effect ceramic surface of the Marte collection by #casalgrandepadana is used for the floors throughout the living areas, including the terraces and porticoes, thus creating an element of continuity between the various areas and between the inside and outside.
Environmentally friendly, sturdy, frost-resistant, anti-slip, easy to install and to clean: Casalgrande Padana’s porcelain stoneware is unalterable by any weather conditions and, thanks to the Bios Antibacterial technology, it is also resistant to bacteria, moulds and moss.
Whether you’ve opted for a style with a country, vintage or Provençal flavour or if you prefer a shabby chic style, Casalgrande Padana’s porcelain stoneware tiles can fill your space with personality and the flavour of tradition. Poetic and welcoming, they make your everyday living space truly unique.
