Coco Brun

Coco Brown Cement Tile Collection

Enter the unique world of Coco Brun with this exclusive collection for Carocim. Here, cement tiles shed their classic guise to embrace contemporary art and poetic surrealism. The result of our collaboration with this multidisciplinary artist, this range is designed for those seeking to add an artistic and narrative dimension to their interiors. Far removed from traditional patterns, blurring the lines between craftsmanship and art, Coco Brun offers us a universe where geometric abstraction meets surprising figurative touches. It's a bold, contrasting collection that plays with our perceptions and transforms the floor into a space of freedom and expression.

Surreal & Picture Book: When the pattern tells a story

The Coco Brun collection is distinguished by strong thematic series, which are all invitations to dream.

• The "Surreal" Collection: Inspired by the Surrealist movement, this series plays with body parts and everyday objects. An eye, a mouth, a hand... Rendered in flat, graphic colors, these elements become fascinating repeating motifs or placed decorative elements (cabochons) that punctuate the space like works of art. It's a touch of humor and chic strangeness that instantly enlivens a room.
• The "Picture Book" Collection: A return to the essence of form with this series reminiscent of encyclopedic plates or children's games. Extremely stylized silhouettes of animals or objects create a universal and playful visual language.

Geometric Abstraction in the Service of Architecture

Beyond the figurative, Coco Brun excels in abstraction. Her geometric patterns for Carocim are never cold. They are inspired by her travels and observations of nature. She uses curved lines, arcs, and circles to soften the rigidity of the square format (20x20 cm). The compositions create flows, undulating movements that expand the space. It's a design that blurs boundaries, perfect for connecting two rooms or creating a spectacular centerpiece in a living room.

A palette of modern and contrasting colors

The artist pays particular attention to color. His palette for Carocim is sophisticated, blending muted, natural hues (earths, ochres) with vibrant, digital bursts (electric blue, pink). Contrast is key to his style. The motifs stand out sharply against solid backgrounds, creating perfect legibility of the design. The handcrafted production, with its layer of pigments dyed throughout, gives these contrasts unparalleled depth and a matte finish. It's graphic art, but with texture and soul.

Dare to use art on the floor (and on the wall)

Coco Brun cement tiles are made for the bold.

• In the bathroom: The "Surreal" motifs (the mouth, the eye) bring a modern and quirky boudoir touch.
• In an entryway: Geometric patterns create a strong visual impact from the first step.
• As a backsplash: The elements of the "Imagier" collection work wonderfully to personalize a kitchen.

Their standard thickness of 16mm guarantees exceptional robustness for the floor, but they can also be installed on walls to create true ceramic paintings.

The alliance of hand and mind

Each tile in this collection is the result of a dual commitment: the artist's desire for the perfect design, and the Carocim craftsman's commitment to impeccable execution. It is in our workshops that the digital design of Coco Brun comes to life, hand-cast into brass dividers. This fusion of design technology and traditional craftsmanship gives the Coco Brun collection its unique character: resolutely modern in its lines, timeless in its material.
