New “Les Modénatures” range with “Pour de Vrai” plates and “Reverso” bricks

In a resolutely contemporary approach, Rairies Montrieux unveils a collection of authentically innovative products. Inspired by the latest trends in contemporary architecture, the new “Les Modénatures” range from Rairies Montrieux combines elegance and modernity.

Each piece has been carefully designed to bring a distinctive touch to any architectural project. This new collection opens new horizons for architects and designers. Indeed, by allowing total freedom of experimentation and equipment, the possibilities of creating unique and expressive walls are numerous. The bricks and tiles from the “Les Modénatures” collection are instantly revealed as a material, tool, and ornament.

This collection opens the way to a construction anchored in the tradition of the wall, where the facade becomes a deep expression and bearer of meanings. The question that looms for the architecture of today and tomorrow is that of a return to style. Ornament is not simply a redundancy, but rather an essential contributor to the rhythm of the shadows. The reliefs they generate enrich the visual experience, giving each structure an architectural appearance imbued with art and elegance.

The “Les Modénatures” collection by RAIRIES MONTRIEUX was honored with the prestigious GESTE D’OR 2024 prize in the “Research and Application” category.

The “For Real” brochures

The Pour de Vrai brochures offer an innovative approach in terms of technique, production and cost. Within this range, the header and the stretcher are united during their manufacturing process on a single plate, including an integrated hollow joint. This combination is very economical, both in manufacturing and installation, with a cost per square meter comparable to that of traditional tiles. These pads effectively distribute the weight of the reliefs over their entire sole, thus meeting DTU standards and guaranteeing optimal solidity.

The Pour de Vrai brochures are interesting for biodiversity

These plates not only offer aesthetic and practical advantages, they also prove to be valuable allies for biodiversity. A concrete example of this ecological contribution lies in the integration of refuges within the hollow reliefs of the platelets.

In the specific assembly of the header and the stretcher, the header is distinguished by being protruding and hollow. When positioned vertically, it creates a cavity conducive to biodiversity, thus providing shelter and living space for different species.

This ingenious initiative is part of a determined approach in favor of preserving the environment.

The basics

The plates come in several forms: For example: the basic range made up of four pieces with very precise naming codes:

Name codes: p = flush beam P = protruding beam b = flush header B = projecting header / = corner plate, e.g.: p/B:xl = wider model, e.g.: p/B:xl & = reverso, ex: pb&3b

For Real - pb
For Real - Pb
For Real - pB
For Real - 3b

Reverso bricks

The Reverso brick is specifically designed for the economical construction of solid brick walls, also known as coat walls. These bricks offer the possibility of incorporating reliefs or remaining smooth.
