The handmade terracotta brick<\/strong><\/a>, by its nature and tradition, is used in multiple areas of construction and building renovation. It can be used both as a load-bearing element<\/strong> (solid brick walls) and for infill, but above all, in modern architecture, it finds its natural use in the creation of terracotta cladding<\/strong>, that is, as an element capable of enriching and furnishing, expressing its beauty in material simplicity.<\/p>\n

It is understood that in addition to the aesthetic function, terracotta cladding<\/strong> is also very functional and durable over time and often boasts being above any fashion or trend with its own unique and unmistakable style.<\/p>\n

<\/b>Terracotta cladding for interiors and exteriors<\/span><\/b><\/h2><\/div>\n\n

Terracotta cladding<\/strong> can be for interiors or exteriors. Externally, it can be used as a face brick<\/strong> to cover the walls of a curtain wall house or simply to embellish details capable of enhancing the entire building (terracotta cladding for thresholds, terracotta cladding for stairs). The same can be proposed internally: a terracotta cladding of a face brick wall (New York loft style) or if we think of the terracotta cladding of a staircase<\/strong> or internal thresholds. For the creation of modern and characterful cladding, terracotta strips<\/a> are used, raw or glazed according to taste. These are details capable of furnishing and enhancing the entire environment with warm and welcoming colors.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/b>The advantages of terracotta cladding<\/span><\/b><\/h2><\/div>\n\n

The advantage<\/strong> of terracotta cladding is certainly the craftsmanship<\/strong> and the possibility of customizing<\/strong> the product in relation to spaces, dimensions, etc. Cladding a terracotta staircase means making modular elements (in print) capable of perfectly covering the step (without cuts) or even better making a single piece of terracotta that covers the entire tread (a terracotta monolith). The same concept can be proposed in terracotta cladding for fireplaces<\/strong><\/a> or even for internal or external thresholds<\/strong> or even for windowsills<\/strong> or copings<\/strong>: these are all elements made exclusively to measure capable of integrating perfectly with existing structures.<\/p>\n
