08 May 2025 CW Team

Valueline, a leader in premium home solutions since 2002, presents an artistic reinvention of bathroom spaces with the Ceramica Cielo Wall-Mounted WC Collection. This innovative series celebrates bold, expressive design, offering a fresh take on functional elegance through its striking colour palette and sophisticated contours.

The Itaca Collection by Ceramica Cielo revisits classical bathroom forms through a contemporary lens, presenting a seamless blend of tradition and modernity. Each piece is crafted with clean contours and soft transitions that highlight the brand’s mastery in ceramic design. The result is a collection that feels sculptural and refined, bringing an understated yet confident presence to any bathroom space.

The curated colour palette plays a central role in defining the collection’s character. From muted taupe and clay-inspired tones to rich glossy greys, the finishes evoke a sense of calm and sophistication. These shades offer a refreshing departure from conventional bathroom aesthetics, allowing for versatile expression across both residential spaces and boutique hotels.

The collection features both floor-standing and wall-mounted WCs along with bidets. The wall-hung WC version offers a floating design that enhances the spatial experience and promotes easier cleaning. Its rimless structure further supports hygiene while maintaining a clear and elegant silhouette. The floor-mounted options are grounded yet light in appearance, with a focus on proportion and balance.

Reflecting Italian heritage and precision, the Itaca Collection upholds Ceramica Cielo’s vision of transforming essential objects into iconic design elements. It is now available at Valueline showrooms.
