A kitchen shaped by colour and materials

White, wood, terracotta and soft, muted tones. At Casa Castillejos, the kitchen renovation, designed by Natalia Ruiz Bouché, is built around a carefully curated selection of colours and materials that transforms the space without sacrificing brightness. On the floor, our Sorolla tile from the Valencia collection introduces a graphic element and connects the different components of a warm, serene composition full of personality.

A palette of materials that defines the space

In this kitchen, each material plays a specific role within the overall composition. The white cabinetry creates a clean, bright base that helps visually enlarge the space, while natural wood introduces warmth through the door and skirting boards.

Against this neutral backdrop, the darker wood-toned countertop provides the main colour accent. Its matt finish and warm hue extend throughout the kitchen, creating an interesting contrast with the white fronts and preventing the overall design from feeling overly uniform.

Sorolla: flooring as a link between colour and material

The kitchen is completed by our Sorolla porcelain tile from the Valencia collection, a hydraulic-inspired floor tile whose design reinterprets the ornamental essence of traditional flooring from a softer, more contemporary perspective.

Its geometric and botanical motifs combine beige, earthy and greyish-blue tones against a light background. This colour palette creates a dialogue with the wood, echoes the warm nuances of the countertop and finds continuity in the soft tones chosen for the walls.

In this way, the hydraulic-inspired kitchen flooring takes centre stage without competing with the rest of the interior design. The pattern adds rhythm and visual richness to a room dominated by simple lines, while its subtly worn appearance introduces a more natural, lived-in feel.

The choice of materials achieves something particularly interesting: combining contemporary elements with more traditional references without creating a visual break between them. The simplicity of the cabinetry coexists naturally with the expressive character of Sorolla.

At Casa Castillejos, ceramic is not an element added at the end of the project, but rather a key feature that helps articulate the entire colour palette. A kitchen where materials, colour and light find the right balance to create a space that is functional, bright and, above all, full of its own identity.
