Dekton® by Cosentino presents Vera and Kira, two new natural colours brimming with strength and personality

Vera and Kira are guaranteed winners for the decoration and architecture of indoor and outdoor spaces, thanks to the perfect look that only the spontaneity of natural stone can offer and the functional and mechanical perfection that only the ultracompact surface Dekton® can provide.

Both inspired by the elegant, versatile appearance of the popular Gris Pulpis marble, the difference between the two lies in their base tone. While Vera offers a grey, cement-like colour, Kira’s finish is full of earth tones.

Cantoria (Almeria), June 2018. Cosentino Group, the Spanish company that leads the world in the production and distribution of innovative surfaces for the world of architecture and design, launches two new colours of Dekton® by Cosentino, where nature and its pure aesthetic take a starring role.

Under the names Vera and Kira, these two new colours are sure to succeed thanks to the perfect look that only the purity and spontaneity of natural stone can offer and the functional and mechanical perfection that only the ultracompact surface Dekton® can provide.

These two new offerings are inspired by the elegant, versatile appearance of the popular Gris Pulpis marble, distinguished from one another by their base tone. While Vera offers a grey, cement-like colour, Kira’s finish is full of earth tones. Vera and Kira are arriving as part of the Dekton® Natural Collection, a series that reflects Cosentino’s desire to emulate the best of nature, producing a faithful reproduction of the details traced by the hand of millions of years of geological processes.

Dekton® Vera

Dekton® Kira

Dekton® Vera, inspired by the well-known Gris Pulpis, is a colour with brushstrokes of natural stone and cement. Its veined structure and cement-like base make Vera a fusion of the natural and industrial, putting the most elegant elements of both on display. Its grey finish combines with a structure of bright veins that break with the aesthetic of conventional colours. An offering with an architectural bent, designed from functionality and the latest trends.

Dekton® Kira, inspired by natural stone, is a colour that resembles the marble Gris Pulpis in its delicacy and versatility. A random distribution of grey veins of different intensities strike across a chromatic base made from earth tones. Kira is defined by timelessness, striking visuals and plenty of personality thanks to the excellent combination of a smooth matte texture, intense base colour and sharp tracery of veins.

Vera and Kira were created for the most ambitious indoor and outdoor decorative and architectural projects, following colour trends in the global market. Cosentino has brought the latest technology and innovation to the powerful aesthetic of Vera and Kira: that which has defined the ultracompact surface Dekton® from its inception. The two new colours can serve as a base for façades, kitchen and bathroom worktops, floor tiles, walls, furniture and any thin cladding. All of this is possible thanks to the magnificent properties of the Dekton® surface, which include - among many others - UV, abrasion, stain, scratch and heat resistance, as well as the ability to make large-format and custom slabs.
