The Cersaie 2021 Press Café entitled “Wellness 4.0. The bathroom becomes a private spa: from spaces to materials and objects” was held on Tuesday 28 September.

An exceptional achievement both for the Italian ceramic industry and for Cersaie, the world’s foremost exhibition of ceramic tile and bathroom furnishings which has been collaborating with ADI and its Emilia-Romagna Observatory for more than seven years.

To possibly offset the dreariness of the pandemic, this year’s edition of Cersaie, the International Exhibition of Ceramics Tile and Bathroom Furnishings - which took place in Bologna, Italy at the end of September - was popping with exuberant colors, intricate patterns, and tactile surfaces.

Floral decorations, continuity between interiors and exteriors, 3D effects, a natural material look and pictorial surfaces are among the recurring themes in the world of ceramic tiles.

Well-being and safety are the two main bathroom design trends in evidence at Cersaie 2021. Nature is closely connected with both, combining a visual sensation of calm with the sense of reassurance that comes from projects with a low environmental footprint.
