Each year at Cersaie, the International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings, new and innovative products are revealed. This year, the event was held from September 25 to 29, 2017 at the Bologna Exhibition Center in Bologna, Italy, where it welcomed 111,604 attendees. The event had 869 exhibitors, one-third of which were foreign companies from 41 different countries.
The Gent collection is inspired by the distinctive allure of Nordic stone, in particular the Pierre Bleue variety typical of the Flanders, which ABK is proposing in an utterly new version with an aged, timeworn appearance. Ceramic is transformed into reclaimed stone with a scratched, stained surface, giving it unique appeal that brings together heritage and modernity. In keeping with the contrasts typical of the latest interior design trends, Gent can play a key role even in the most minimalist locations.
