| Article | There is, perhaps, no place in the world quite like Havana, Cuba. From the sun-splashed beaches to the illustrious Spanish colonial architecture of Old Havana, the spirit and romance of the Caribbean resonates out loud in the forbidden nature of the city. Soulful and lusty rumba beats escape through open doors on to the dusty streets, where ornate balconies, columns, and stain-glassed windows adorned in delicious pastel shutters add to the tropical allure. Inspired by the tradition and rich, colorful history of Havana, Mediterranea, a multi-national tile and design firm dedicated to producing the world’s finest ceramic and porcelain tile with a creative element, has brought the sun worn and exotic wood look of the tropical islands pastel shutters to life with its latest creation: “Havana.” Several different colored clays were used in the manufacturing process of this thru-body porcelain, lending dramatic movement, variation and subtle shading that makes each fully rectified tile unique. Produced in the United States, Mediterranea’s Havana Collection represents the only wood-look, thru body porcelain tile series on the market, making it ideal for high-traffic areas, whether commercial or residential. The worn and colorful look of the Caribbean style wood shutters from Mediterranea are available in two sizes: 6” x 24” and 12” x 24”, and five different colors. The Havana Collection is offered in Sugarcane (white), Cohiba (tan), Mambo (red), Tobacco (brown), and Tropicana (gold). For over a decade, Mediterranea Italian-based developers and craftsman have been designing and producing tile in collaboration with the world’s top factories in Italy, Spain, Brazil, Turkey, Argentina and the United States. Mediterranea has the unrivaled ability to match its unique products with the right manufacturer, surpassing competition with incredible technological capabilities, competitive pricing and outstanding US-based service.
