With its collections, Panaria Ceramica embodies the values of slow living, offering a new residential paradigm characterised by creative, harmonious and safe solutions.
The home is not just a physical place, but a refuge where serenity is restored, and well-being is nurtured by experiencing time in a more authentic way. In the frenzy of modern life, the need to slow down is increasingly felt. Not surprisingly, a new cultural phenomenon known as slow living has emerged: popular on social media, it is a kind of visual ethnography that promotes a lifestyle in harmony with nature and the pursuit of inner balance.
The concept of slow living has ancient roots. Already present in the wisdom of Seneca, today it finds expression on Instagram and other platforms as a response to the speed of modern life. It celebrates harmony with nature, restorative rest, and the search for balance. Choosing to slow down becomes a conscious decision, a remedy to the commodification of time and alienation, already denounced by Seneca in his De brevitate vitae. This philosophy also emerged in response to the Industrial Revolution, which imposed a fast pace of production and consumption, and resonates with the Japanese Wabi-Sabi culture, which teaches that living slowly and appreciating ordinary beauty enriches human well-being.
Today more than ever, carving out moments of otium is considered an act of self-care, promoting a more fulfilling life. A reflection that inevitably also involves the home: the place where time slows down.
Panaria Ceramica is the ideal partner for those who want to transform their home into a space aligned with nature and time, enhancing daily life. With the collections Workshop, Surround, Kairos e The Place, the brand perfectly interprets the values of slow living through creative, innovative and safe solutions, combining high resistance with materials that evoke the positive energy of nature.
A small, glossy and versatile ceramic brick designed to offer creative freedom, Workshop comes in nine tones inspired by natural elements: earth, sea, and sun. Its luminous and textured surface recalls artisanal hand-crafted tiles while delivering all the performance of the finest ceramics.
A mineral-rich surface inspired by limestone and jura stone, Surround features fossil inclusions that convey natural elegance and balance. Available in five shades, from warm to cool tones, it adapts effortlessly to both urban and natural settings, enhancing a sense of stability and harmony.
With the warm allure of oak planks, Kairos is a wood-effect porcelain stoneware whose texture reproduces the authentic imperfections of nature. Its realistic knots and grain patterns evoke a contemplative, slower pace of living. It also features Protect® antibacterial technology, eliminating up to 99.9% of bacteria.
A tribute to matter, The Place blends Vals stone and marble-like quartzite into a sophisticated and rich stone-effect surface. Offered in multiple sizes, five colours and three thicknesses, it brings coherence and elegance to indoor and outdoor spaces designed for a slower, more intentional lifestyle.
The slow living vision of Panaria Ceramica redefines the home as a space for living time freely and in harmony. Inspired by the regenerative power of nature, these creative and versatile surfaces enhance everyday well-being.
