The original inspiration for the Marvel Onyx collection from Atlas Concorde stems from slabs of fine natural onyx, characterised by a particular luminosity and precise details such as light, delicate shaded veins…
Choosing a stone means recognising the answer to a contemporary need in a history, dating back thousands of years. Atlas Concorde draws inspiration from onyx to create Marvel Onyx: a collection for creating welcoming, evocative spaces thanks to the lightness and depth of luminous colors in impalpable shades, harking back to the protective power that legend and tradition ascribe to this unique material.
In keeping with the style of all Marvel World collections, Marvel Onyx combines elegance and sophistication and hints at an ethereal dimension manifested in the colour palette. The aesthetic, decorative potential of this collection finds full expression in the large-format slabs, capable of enveloping those who inhabit the space by offering an experience of hospitality, comfort and wellbeing.
Marvel Onyx brings to Marvel World – the project dedicated to the exploration of the finest marbles – the luminosity of onyx and the unique vibe this stone generates when struck by light, further enhanced by a high-gloss polished finish. The stylistic potential of stone finds its fullest expression in the details of the very fine veining, subtle splits, inclusions and variations in tone that lend themselves to an infinity of combinations, multiplying the aesthetic and design possibilities.
Lighter tones embrace Marvel Onyx White, with a warm white base with tone-on-tone crystalline veins enhanced by hazelnut shades that produce a profound three-dimensional effect. Marvel Onyx Alabaster, inspired by golden onyx, with a refined champagne-colored body adorned with delicate hazelnut nuances and surmounted by subtle white and gold veins. Marvel Onyx Pearl, where the background and shading play on tones of pearl gray broken up by faint white streaks.
Marvel Onyx Noir on the other hand features a fine siliceous onyx with an intense, compact black field furrowed by very fine white veins that are also found in Marvel Onyx Sky, with a light blue background enriched by indigo shading. Finally, Marvel Onyx Quartz was inspired by a natural stone from the Orient with a distinctive soft pink color traversed by elegant white lines.
Contemporary design, timeless elegance and understated luxury are the traits that best define the style of the Marvel World family and Marvel Onyx fits right in. A collection capable of transforming spaces into refined settings, enhanced by the large sizes (120×278 cm) that highlight the monolithic
dimensions of the large slab and coordinate with the modular formats measuring 60×60, 60×120, 120×120 and 120x240cm.
Atlas Plan, a brand of Atlas Concorde specialised in large slabs for kitchen countertops, tables and furnishings, explores the potential of Marvel Onyx in a 162×324 format in a White version. To complete the Atlas Concorde product system, Marvel Onyx is transformed into a surface used for bathroom fixtures
made by Atlas Concorde Habitat, in the form of beautiful natural onyx washbasins.
