September: the perfect month to reinvent your projects with large-format sintered stone

September marks a new beginning. After the summer, many professionals in the architecture and design sector resume projects, plan renovations or kick off construction projects that will define the coming months. It is a key moment to invest in materials that offer innovation, durability and design. And that is where large-format sintered stone takes centre stage.

The power of large format in design and construction

Ascale sintered stone slabs offer a solution that goes far beyond aesthetics. Thanks to their large format, they allow you to create continuous spaces with fewer joints and a feeling of spaciousness that elevates any project. Kitchens, bathrooms, ventilated façades or furniture: the versatility is total.

Furthermore, their resistance to heat, stains and impact makes them an ideal surface for both residential and contract projects.

Why September is the ideal moment

1. Project restart:

After the summer break, architecture and design studios are seeking efficient materials to meet tight deadlines.

2. New collections and trends:

The start of the season brings inspiration and fresh ideas that make a difference.

3. Optimisation of construction times:

Thanks to its format and ease of installation, sintered stone speeds up processes without sacrificing quality.

Featured Project: SANT Kitchen with Tívoli White

An inspiring example is the SANT Kitchen project, developed by BIGU Estudio, which used Ascale’s Tívoli White model.

Tívoli White, inspired by the purity of classic marble, brings light and sophistication to the kitchen, creating a timeless and elegant space. The large format allowed for continuity between surfaces, reducing joints and enhancing the visual spaciousness, while the material’s durability ensures excellent performance in a heavily used space like the kitchen.

The result is a project that perfectly reflects the union of contemporary design, functionality, and cutting-edge materials.

Innovation and sustainability

At Ascale, we work with a firm commitment to sustainability. The manufacturing of our large-format slabs is designed to reduce environmental impact, using efficient processes and natural raw materials. This way, each project not only gains in design, but also in environmental responsibility.

September is a month of new beginnings, and there’s no better way to kick off the season than by embracing materials that transform spaces and elevate the architectural experience. With models like Tívoli White, Ascale’s large-format sintered stone demonstrates how innovation and beauty can coexist in unique projects.
