Terracotta grid is a revolutionary architectural system that transforms traditional ceramic into a flexible and versatile envelope. Strongly inspired by the principles of textile architecture, this grid combines cutting-edge design, exceptional installation speed, and high sustainability to give a unique shape and character to any project.
Compared to traditional cladding systems, Terracotta Grid offers numerous advantages. Its modular design, adaptability, and dry installation make it a more efficient, versatile, and environmentally friendly solution for modern architecture. This system seamlessly integrates into all types of projects, from private homes and offices to large public buildings such as hospitals, hotels, educational centres, and commercial spaces.
Why choose Terracotta Mesh?
Maximum flexibility and adaptation – The system offers a 100% adaptable design for every individual project, accommodating even the most complex geometries.
Certified durability – High mechanical strength and maximum weather resistance ensure a long service life in all climatic conditions.
Energy efficiency – It acts as a passive solar filter, providing natural protection from the sun and improving the thermal performance of the building.
Fast and precise assembly The modular system allows for clean, dry, and extremely fast installation, without the need for heavy machinery or wet construction.
Sustainability and the circular economy – The system can be fully dismantled and recycled, whilst simple maintenance and immediate access to the substrate further reduce lifecycle costs.
Endless possibilities of Terracotta Network
Terracotta mesh allows for the creation of seamless, continuous surfaces. This unique feature permits different applications on the same structure using the same ceramic element, thereby maintaining perfect continuity of colour and texture from floor to ceiling.
Ventilated facades
The system allows for the design of innovative ventilated facades that combine lightness, aesthetics, and energy efficiency.
Natural ventilation: It increases the energy efficiency of the building.
Passive protection: It acts as a screen to reduce direct sunlight.
Reduced load: The lightweight modular system reduces structural load.
Flexibility: It easily adapts to curved or angled surfaces.
Lightweight pergolas
Create lightweight ceramic pergolas that combine functionality with striking architectural expression.
Play of light and shadow: Creates unique visual experiences in outdoor spaces.
Natural shade: The ideal solution for warm climates with optimal ventilation.
Adaptive density: Open or dense design, depending on the lighting needs.
Resistance: It tolerates marine and humid conditions excellently.
Pavements and floor coverings
High strength: Excellent mechanical wear resistance, suitable for pedestrians and light traffic.
Drainage solutions: Perfect for outdoor or rainy areas, squares and courtyards.
Simple maintenance: Quick replacement of individual modules.
Roofs
Structural lightness: The ideal solution for renovating and extending existing buildings.
Thermal comfort: Effective insulation that enhances indoor comfort.
Continuous aesthetic: Visual alignment of the roof with the facade without visible connecting elements.
Materials and finishes
The Terracotta Network system is not limited to traditional terracotta. Its intelligent design allows for integration and adaptation to various types of materials, including glazed elements, wood, bamboo, steel and glass.
This ability to integrate offers architects an incredibly flexible tool for expression, enabling the exploration of textures, reflections, and warmth without sacrificing the conceptual unity of the design.
Natural terracotta: Warm, timeless, and deeply connected to nature.
Glazed ceramics: It expands creative possibilities with rich palettes of colours and iridescence.
Inkjet printing: Offers limitless personalisation and a unique visual identity.
Natural materials: (Wood, bamboo) Bring organic warmth and texture to the project.
