Taormina Black & White Tile

Four stylised clovers point to one name: Carreau Taormina Noir & Blanc belongs to the collection Paola Navone designed for Carocim, a Mediterranean-modern range whose patterns bear Sicilian town names. Its symmetrical geometry, classic and refined, sums up the collection's spirit. A designer cement tile in the traditional 20 x 20 cm format, priced at €220.50 per m².

Southern light tests every material, yet the pigments of this cement tile are systematically protected by Carocim's anti-UV treatment for exterior use: the black and white of Carreau Taormina Noir & Blanc keep their true values rather than washing out. What years outdoors add is a discreet patina on the surface, a lived-in charm, while the four clovers stay crisp.

Yes, entrance halls are its natural habitat: 16 mm of dense pressed material give Carreau Taormina Noir & Blanc the sturdiness daily comings and goings demand, and the black and white clover motif forgives dust between cleanings. Protect it with a pore-filling sealer, add a doormat, clean with neutral soap: this Carocim cement tile will greet guests for decades.

A gentle rhythm wins: regular sweeping, mopping with warm water and neutral or black soap, never vinegar, acids or bleach. Renew the pore-filling protection when water stops beading on the surface. That is the whole secret for a Carocim cement tile: with this minimal care, Carreau Taormina Noir & Blanc rewards you with its refined harmony year after year.

Four clovers, two colours, one philosophy: Carocim pairs contemporary designers with the ancestral craft of the cement tile, and Carreau Taormina Noir & Blanc embodies it. Paola Navone's symmetrical, stylised geometry is classic in vocabulary yet modern in restraint, exactly the balance the maison cultivates. Handmade pressing plus an author's eye: that is the Carocim signature underfoot.
