The Inspirio range from Argeton: a source of creativity for original terracotta facades

6 collections inspired by the elements of nature make up the Inspirio range (mineral, metal, concrete, nature, classic and graphic) and are available in a wide variety of colours. The Inspirio range benefits from all the advantages of terracotta: energy efficient for its manufacture, recyclable and resistant to time.

Inspirio, a new creativity

Thanks to the great aesthetic and technical diversity of its terracotta cladding, Argeton has been able, in recent years, to give a dimension of modernity to facade cladding systems.

Today, Argeton goes further by propelling creativity into a new dimension, that of the Engobe Digital Inspirio.

Innovative, the Inspirio terracotta cladding range uses digital engobe technology to offer new designs and openness to the realization of new creative ideas for all architectural projects.

Engobes are high quality surface mineral pigments applied to clay shingles prior to the firing process.

The advantage of applying mineral pigments and curing them is that all components are fused together: unlike organic coatings, surfaces cannot wash out or discolor over time. This gives Argeton's Inspirio fronts a premium quality and finish.

Finally, by combining the natural properties of terracotta building materials with the new innovative and environmentally friendly aesthetics of today, Inspirio shingles are suitable for any sustainable construction approach.

Inspirio, unique expressions for facades

Designed to offer unlimited choice in terms of shapes, surfaces and colours, the Inspirio range from Argeton consists of 6 collections inspired by elements from nature. They currently include 41 models available and are available indefinitely thanks to the possibility of creating made-to-measure decorations.

Mineral inspiration

The "Mineral inspiration" collection subtly offers the look of natural stone. The cladding faithfully reproduces the subtle veins and patterns present in this material. The collection consists of 6 models (Venere, Travertino, Sandro, Maestro, Palazzo and Juno) and comes in 9 colors: light grey, dark grey, blue grey, white, red, pink, brown, orange brown and beige.

Metal inspired

The "Metal inspiration" collection expresses all the aesthetic power of this living material. The subtle reflections and shadows on the many facets give the cladding surfaces a very strong aesthetic value. While representing the aspects of metal, the collection benefits from the advantages of terracotta against corrosion, abrasion, longevity of colors, as well as its respect for the environment. The "Metal inspiration" collection is made up of 3 models (Comet, Patino, Verona) and comes in 6 colours: rusty, blue, rusty blue, rusty orange, grey, light grey.

Concrete inspired

The "Concrete inspiration" collection simulates the aesthetics of raw concrete. Transformation work such as souring, sandblasting, washing and sanding appear as realistic with digital engobing as with poured concrete. Thanks to this new design, it is finally possible to benefit from a concrete aesthetic while taking advantage of the naturalness of terracotta and the advantages of a ventilated facade.

The "Concrete inspiration" collection consists of 4 models (Marbeto, Griseo, Terrazzo, Marlo) and comes in 6 colors: grey, light grey, medium grey, warm grey, dark grey, cream.

Nature-inspired

The "Nature Inspiration" collection combines the charm and warmth of natural surfaces with a touch of human ingenuity. Color nuances, knots and streaks are reproduced so faithfully on the terracotta cladding that they have nothing to envy to the sources of inspiration. The "Nature Inspiration" collection is made up of 4 models (Quercia, Ebano, Carbone, Rustico) and comes in 7 colours: brown, medium brown, light brown, reddish brown, black, ash gray and washed out grey.

Classically inspired

The "Classic Inspiration" collection offers a rustic and minimalist facade. Benefiting from the durability and energy-saving advantages of terracotta, "Classic Inspiration" is impact-resistant, easy to clean and practically maintenance-free. It consists of a model (Aurea) available in 3 colors: (light grey, dark gray and reddish brown).

Graphic inspiration

The "Graphic inspiration" collection was produced in collaboration with architects to create original visuals based on geometric lines or organic shapes and thus give facades a particular liveliness and depth. The "Graphic inspiration" collection consists of a model (Génio) available in 4 colours: mars, blue marble, blue triangle and beige circle.
