Abstract

In the 21st century, a distinct technological progress has taken place with regard to ceramic tiles production. Both technological possibilities and the scope of application of the said material have improved. Full body ceramic tiles have started to appear in architecture not solely as a surface covering materials for concrete but also in applications that had not been earlier associated with ceramic tiles. This article focuses on approaching this subject in the context of the usage of large format porcelain stoneware tiles in the shaping of architecture. In this contemporary era, we are experiencing an exceptional evolution, on both technological and aesthetic aspects, when it comes to the production of ceramic materials, specifically porcelain stoneware tiles. Modern ceramic products, especially large format ceramic tiles, also referred to as siliceous sinter, offer nonconventional possibilities in design and an extended scope of applications of this material in architectural realizations.
