Aix is a contemporary collection that recalls the original flooring of an 18th century French villa. Formed of ancient calcareous stones used as a matrix and recovered one by one in sheets of various size. The stones, which vary in pattern and colour, are the model that reproduces an irregular and patchy stone surface, complete with markings and shading that enhances the appeal of footprints in time.

Clearly referencing the European design culture for stone, the perfect symbiosis between architecture and nature, Aix comes in a range of colours to fit different contexts: warm colours linked to the Mediterranean architectonic culture of French and Italian villas, immersed in the countryside; colder tones for the feel of ancient houses across Ireland and Great Britain.

Underfloor heating is a great way to keep your home warm. It’s lovely to walk on, it distributes heat evenly around each corner of the room, and it frees your walls from radiators, making more space for paintings, shelf units or even picture windows - or allowing you to create a minimalist look if you wish. However, it can also be very expensive to install, particularly in older houses, so you may need to think long and hard before making a decision. Why don’t more people have it in their homes? We look at the pros and cons to help you decide whether it’s right for your property.
