In “Candy & Moka” and in the “Nexo” space, tradition and ceramic innovation coexist: terracotta claddings and large porcelain stoneware slabs define the design projects.

Iris Ceramica Group took part in the latest edition of Marbella Design & Art, one of the most interesting international events in the fields of architecture and interior design, now in its eighth edition. Each year, the exhibition brings together interior designers, artists, and international brands in a sequence of immersive environments reflecting the most current directions of contemporary design. Hosted at the Palacio de Ferias, Exposiciones y Congresos Adolfo Suárez, it helps strengthen Marbella’s role as a platform for dialogue between design culture, material research, and contemporary languages, at a time of year when the city once again becomes a meeting point for the European creative scene. Within the exhibition route, the ceramic surfaces by Iris Ceramica Group, used in two areas, engage with different design visions, defining spaces through a creatively inspired material narrative.

Among these is the Candy & Moka space, designed by Welcome Design and led by Mar Vera, conceived as a manifesto on color and materiality, built around a reflection on the evolution of relational spaces and new ways of inhabiting design. The chromatic duality between exterior and interior forms the project’s axis: outside, characterized by cool tones, the wall made with large slabs in Onice Rosa by FMG enhances graphic depth and highlights the translucency of the surface, creating a scenic presence that defines the identity of the space from the entrance. Connecting the two atmospheres is the counter in Calacatta Aureo 4D by Sapienstone, an expression of Iris Ceramica Group’s technological research through the material continuity of veining across the entire thickness of the slab.

Inside, the atmosphere shifts to a warmer palette enriched by metallic reflections and calibrated lighting that creates an intimate and relational environment. The flooring in Terrapura by FMG—surfaces with deeply intense tones created through Full Body3 technology—introduces a balanced chromatic base that accompanies spatial perception with a natural and measured presence. The fireplace wall finds its expressive accent in the base in Bottega d’Arte Rosso—Dedica 10x10cm edition—by Iris Ceramica, an element that establishes a visual relationship with the central seating and reinforces the dialogue between material, color, and furnishings.

Also within the exhibition route, in the Nexo space designed by Silvia Trigueros, a composition of books and candelabras creates an intimate atmosphere around a round table with a top in Taj Mahal Cashmere by Sapienstone. The warm and natural tones of the surface, crossed by fluid and irregular veining, introduce a luminous and refined presence that interacts with the contemplative dimension of the project.

With its participation in Marbella Design & Art 2026, Iris Ceramica Group highlighted ceramic material as an integral part of design, contributing to its construction of meaning. Through its surfaces—where tradition and innovation coexist and enrich each other—the company showcases the infinite application and expressive possibilities of ceramics.

Sapienstone participated in the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2026, the leading North American trade fair dedicated to kitchen and bath design, held from February 17–19, 2026 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Exhibiting in synergy with Stonepeak — a brand of Iris Ceramica Group — Sapienstone offered visitors an immersive experience into the world of high-end porcelain stoneware.

The booth stood out for its strong aesthetic identity: a refined environment dominated by deep burgundy tones that enhanced the displayed materials. At center stage, a striking kitchen island clad in Fior di Viola 4D — renowned for its natural textures and dramatic veining — interacted with the geometric Ombra di Luce flooring composed of Blu Belge, Grigio Savelli and Crema Neve, creating a visually impactful composition. Completing the space was the display of Sapienstone slab collections featuring applied 4D technology and three-dimensional surface panels showcased through processing techniques that emphasized the quality of slabs with 4D technology.

At KBIS 2026, Sapienstone presented a curated selection of slabs featuring Iris Ceramica Group’s 4D Ceramics technology alongside the Dress Code collection, designed by internationally renowned designer Jaime Beriestain. Two elements closely aligned with Sapienstone’s philosophy: exploring the expressive potential of porcelain stoneware, where texture, depth and design merge to create surfaces that are, in every sense, a statement of style.

KBIS 2026 also marked an important recognition for Sapienstone: the product Kuroca 4D received the Best Product Award presented by BIMsmith — a leading platform for the architecture and design industry. An award that celebrates product innovation and confirms the brand’s positioning as a reference point in the international ceramic design landscape.

In one of London’s most protected and architecturally significant neighbourhoods, this family home has been beautifully transformed by Rees Architects with exceptional sensitivity, balancing its original character with contemporary living needs. The renovation required great precision: every material and design decision had to be approved by both the local council and the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust — a context where technical expertise and subtlety are essential.

The transformation is most evident on the ground floor, where a new spatial flow is created through bespoke dark-oak joinery connecting the living, dining and kitchen areas while discreetly integrating storage and functional elements. Natural light, sliding panels and soft transitions bring a sense of calm, clarity and flexibility.

At the heart of the home lies a bright kitchen opening onto an elevated brick terrace. Here, our Arabescato 4D takes centre stage, adding depth, elegance and a sculptural three-dimensional effect that enriches the atmosphere. The material complements the project’s warm palette of natural woods, stone tones and soft fabrics.

Windows, finishes and tailored details were carefully selected to respect the neighbourhood’s architectural character while enhancing comfort and efficiency. The result is a serene, intuitive and timeless home — a contemporary reinterpretation of the Arts & Crafts spirit.

The latest project by My fucking studio redefines the concept of a kitchen-studio as a creative environment, brought to life through Crema Avorio — the Sapienstone surface that embodies the haute couture essence of technical porcelain.

In this project, the kitchen becomes a work of architectural precision: the countertop, backsplash, island and shelf are unified in a single material gesture thanks to Crema Avorio’s matte finish and warm tone, creating an enveloping and serene sense of visual continuity. A setting that breathes purity and balance, enhanced by the natural light that floods the studio.

Behind its soft, natural appearance lies advanced technology: a large-format porcelain surface resistant to heat, stains and intensive use, designed to meet the demands of a professional creative space.

Under each halo of light, its refined character becomes unmistakable. The result is a space that radiates purity, warmth and a quiet, understated beauty — where Crema Avorio becomes the true protagonist of the environment.
