Confirming the commitment of the Marca Corona line 1741 for experimentation, this concrete-effect collection, Chalk, combines delicate tones with bold shapes. It explores all of the cold and chalky nuances, while relying on its rhomboidal format. Chalk is completed by 7 1/2- x 30-cm bricks, which recall the look and feel of unplastered and re-painted stone walls, and the classical 20- x 20-cm tile. The four gray-toned backgrounds available – White, Silver, Grey and Dark – recall the irregularities of concrete and characterize the 38 geometric patterns offered.
