Tuscan Design Style and unique architectural design elements
When asked about Tuscan design style, Alessandro, our showroom manager at Laguna Hills, usually draws from the various Tuscan design style concepts created by the team’s Florence-based architects to present some of our interior decoration ideas. With these Tuscan design style concepts, IDEA Super Tuscan Projects architects present the synthesis of an array of creations and solutions that could directly fit into Orange County’s hilly landscape.
Natural stone and terracotta tiles are consistent with traditional Tuscan Design style elements. In a country where art and architecture reveal a long history at every corner, red clay tiles and travertine appear as a reminder of its history in any Tuscan little village.
Siena and its generous natural stone-rich quarries have been excavated for centuries to extract one of the smoothest and most beautiful travertines in the world. This extraction activity, perfectioned through generations of skilled artisans, keeps our passionate partners at Pietre di Rapolano (Pietre di Rapolano: emozionati con il travertino toscano) focused on reinterpreting traditions every day of their unique work.
Our very own Tuscan design style concept, ‘Siena Style Patio,’ is an example of this perfect combination: simple lines, sober colors, and gentle contrast between natural stone and manufactured clay tiles; in this concept, an exceptional handmade terracotta floor tile, Pelle di Luna, is the perfect solution to warm up your patio hall and add an authentic Tuscan feel!
Once a product used by the Romans to pave their homes and patios, Impruneta clay tiles have made terracotta a world-renowned floor tiling solution. Our partner Manetti Gusmano renews this legacy by offering various untreated and treated tiling options for interior and exterior floors. From orange to black, from listel to square, our Tuscan-made Cotto tiles provide a perfect way to blend your patio flooring into your home naturally. Once inside, the energy of your backyard is smoothly transformed into a welcoming and warm interior space.
Our Tuscan Design kitchens are decorated with beautiful wooden or marble countertops and colorful handmade backsplashes to give this family room a contemporary feeling and a brush of traditional travertine, gently distributed in simple mosaics. Visible wood beams are another gift from our Etruscan ancestors, that used to build their temples and homes in wood frames and ceilings.
Wood is also part of our flooring concepts with various wood types, essences, and colors. A dream made true by our partners Alpa Florence, that realize tailor-made projects, sewing solutions to the client’s needs, weaving the client’s taste with solid woodworking know-how for a truly remarkable result. Their wood floors.
In essence, Tuscan design style is sober, clean, and simple, and at the same time rustic and romantic. There is an enduring search for a sustainable balance between functionality and aesthetics, closely knit with natural and local materials: Serena stone, wood, and terracotta. Tuscan exterior green wood shutters punctuate sienna and ocher facades or imposing stone walls.
