Concrete Design Masters
For twenty years, we’ve been bringing design into homes worldwide like you’ve never seen before: from a handful of sand to your doorstep.
Shaping Design
We bring Architecture and Design to the highest aesthetic conception, exalting forms and playing with their infinite possibilities. We surpass the technical constraints imposed by traditional production technologies to unleash the creativity of architects and designers. In our products, every day coexists the obsession for technical perfection and the aesthetic uniqueness of a living material.
At Il Cantiere, we don’t limit ourselves to simple reproduction of concrete pieces; instead, we are the protagonists of their development. Often, the final creation is just the tip of the iceberg in a process that includes optimizing weights and thicknesses, designing fixing systems, inventing surface finishes, or studying packaging and accessories. Nothing here is left to chance; every one of our products tells a love story between design and Italian craftsmanship.
Completed projects
Material
UHPC Concrete Ductal®
Il Cantiere produces artifacts using the innovative UHPC Ductal® concrete patented by LafargeHolcim, a multinational group leader in the production of construction materials resulting from the merger between the French giant Lafarge and the Swiss giant Holcim. Il Cantiere is the first company in Italy holding, since 2007, the exclusive license for the processing and transformation of UHPC Ductal® concrete.
Finishes
Infinite Combinations
The surface of concrete is a canvas to decorate with oxides, sands, and aggregates from all over the world. Studying the combinations of these elements allows us to create a virtually infinite range of aesthetic finishes characterized by an uneven and natural taste.
Technology
We create molds for all shapes
Shape is the most important aesthetic communication tool in cement manufacturing; for this reason, it becomes the primary driver of company technological development. Building molds means mastering the fluid nature of concrete, transforming a viscous liquid into a sculptural design element.
