Piazza Italia

Beauty on display

The square has always been the place for meeting and exchange where culture, history, symbols and traditions intertwine. And this is particularly true in Italy where the square still plays a privileged role in preserving the genetic heritage of the community to represent their social life. The Italporphyry Piazza Italia line with porphyry cubes ovelapping arcs respects the classic models and provides a versatile choice of colours, sizes and building solutions with the aim of recalling the historical union between the porphyry cube, the square and the “Bel Paese”, thus guaranteeing a perfect symbiosis between aesthetics, durability, elegance and above all visual pleasure.
