Editor Speaks
Kumud Pawar Chief Editor of Luzmag Magazine
"If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward."
Carrying the same belief, here is one more step towards executing a clear vision, the white collection. What is white? What do we understand by white? A very complex yet a simple definition fills the space. White is a symbol of purity, peace and simplicity. It is a colour of natural beauty. White signifies relaxation, calmness and invitation. White in true sense is a cradle of paradise. White also is the oyster delivering the pearl of the spectrum of 7 VIBGYOR colours. It is a crystal ladder to beauty and comfort. White is also symbolic of luxury, elegance and sophistication. White can also give height to structural elements. This colour welcomes ambience and hospitality. Overall, white is a very flexible colour giving a refined look, attractiveness and coherence. White is most often associated with innocence, perfection, purity, honesty, cleanliness, the beginning, the new, neutrality, lightness and exactitude. White aids mental clarity, encourages us to clear clutter or obstacles, evokes purification of thoughts or actions and also enables fresh beginnings. Someone who loves communication, design, creativity, technology and everything in between, white should be the choice. With this significance of white ran the inspiration to build a white decorum and thus came into existence this range of white punched tiles.
Editor Speaks
INTRODUCING SOL PUNCHED TILES Wonder what SOL punched tiles are? This is a simple understanding about the punched tiles and how they are uniquely made. Punched tiles actually are embossed tiles with a great precision to the depth of embossing, but it is not the usual method how other regular tiles are embossed. In fact, this is a very different technique. The dyes and punches used for making these tiles are specially imported all the way from Spain, thus making these tiles simply out of the ordinary. Punched tiles are laser-engraved, even for the minutest detail of the punched design on these tiles, which makes them uncommon and out of the ordinary. The tiles are punched, glazed and finally baked to the desired and unusual outcome, making them to look luxurious and modern. Due to the dissimilar technique used for its make as well as the precise depth of embossing, these tiles enhance lighting and create a novel impact on the applied space. Even customized designs can be printed or punched on these tiles.
“When you glaze on a bright white ground, it is like looking through the colour rather than at it. It is like looking through a stained glass.�

White is a color with a lot of beautiful qualities but unique to itself compared to most of the lot. It’s a “space creator.” A feeling of endless and clean space is the basic depiction of its aura. A nice background for any color, a perfect combination for almost any background. White, as we know, is also the sign of boldness and simplicity together. It gives away an attitude of strong sense of neatness and clean approach to any space.

excellent choice for collectors and art lovers.
As a designer, white touches a lot of our senses, be it the clear and sheen look and feel of a small office or a living room, especially where white is trending or the large public spaces like the large art galleries of the metropolitans where exhibition is the prime concern and white is of a very large significance.
We did a couple of projects which had all white in it. The largest of it, an IT company called ZEPTECH SOLUTIONS at a corporate park, around 3800 sq. ft. of space, done all in white. All the workstations that were done were white powder coated steel structures filled with white back
White makes its presence felt with the vastness that it adds to any space, be it a cozy living room of a bungalow or a large open space hall of a corporate office. It gives a larger welcoming background to a lot of ACCENT elements like accent walls, art works, memorabilia, antiques, etc. It is an
Colors are a language, an expression. Color also is a cover, as a form of distraction. Spaces look elaborate in whites and the presence of any other forms is subtle when painted/created in whites, as per my feeling. The game of shadows is best played in clear language with white, as no mixture, but just pure true and clear shadows are aligned. Structures have surfaces which need clarity in language which if treated with right kind of texture and feel can really give a sense of strength and etiquettes to a building or its façade or a structure. Clarity is the sense one thinks of achieving in all ways of life be it

An unadulterated sense gives white its strength and its clear simplicity. What holds all the shades of the three basic yet when together is none but pure in its sense, that’s the beauty of white as a colour. Purity is the first reason we love white. Be it a shirt or a collar symbol, white is all we want to achieve ultimately at the end of the day. Superficially, we all believe in colors and their variants yet we all know how important white is in our day-to-day living and the feeling of beauty which the presence of white gives us. It is a must to have a clear,
fresh and clean surrounding, neat in its etiquettes that can only be fulfilled by “White.” White never was a reflection of loneliness or boredom. Rather it reflects the sense of complete nothingness, that which reflects the possibilities of everything, like an empty canvas, with the possibility of a masterpiece. It’s a soothing feel and a space to think, be positive and create, where there is clarity and amplitude of thoughts, where there is excitement and happiness. Hence, everyone who wishes to grow and who wants to reflect a sense of growth must adopt white in their surroundings. I would recommend white and its textures that give a sense of fulfillment and beauty of enormous scale in every space possible.
Colors are a language that a space or a structure speaks to a subconscious of a common man. We use colors as a point of focus, a sense of diversion and a point of attraction, as responsible designers. Buildings, spaces or elements, all come together, with the right and apt use of colors, most of which is influenced by the activities, the space bars. We have and we will even in coming times use white and its different textures at necessary and required places, as and when required.

With white what first comes to mind is purity and satisfaction. It is a symbol of peace and honesty. White brightens the surrounding space and also creates a spectre of large space. White can fit well into your choice and taste whether traditional, medieval or modern. White softens loud areas and acts as a sense of comfort. It also gives sharpness to the space and the surroundings. Amongst a pond full of pink lotuses, a glowing white water lily enhances the beauty of the pond. Such is the white effect and impact, sharp yet soothing. It is a unique tale of calmness and softness giving meaning to the expertise and excellence. “The first of all single colors is white. We shall set down white for the representative of light, without which no color can be seen.” White has grown popular in design or fashion because it is light, neutral and goes with everything. White in decorum would make the space more classy and elegant and that would enhance the style of living and behavior. White applied surroundings would generate positive thoughts and make things simpler and easier. In my opinion, white should be a part of life and lifestyle for the given reason that white walls, floors or even white dining table would convey a message of graceful simplicity. In totality, white means your soul and basically how pure your soul is. It is a great colour to use being flexible and its uniqueness is ultimately personified. White punch tiles is a great concept and passionate people would love this range as these tiles would characterize their status and style. The way these tiles are made is one of its own kind and the implied precision and perfection would show it all, it just won’t require any descriptions.

SHARING EXPERIENCE: “A few months back, I did interiors of a dental clinic. Earlier there were dark shades to the interiors which I converted into majorly white. Asking for a feedback, the dentist called me a magician and that his patients have now turned down calm during dental treatments. To this very statement, my comment was that the whole magic was created by the imagination put into effect with such colour combination and elements that impact together of which the chief powering effect was due to white. Such is the significance of white.�

For a designer, an architectural or interior design project is like making an art piece in which one lives, so applying white in any form is similar to creating a 3D canvas on which the designer will play with ideas. Basically, white provides a lot of options to a designer as a canvas to put things on compared to any other colour or hue. Hence, if a designer wants to fly in the sky of ideas then his first choice would be white. From an engineering point of view, white reflects maximum light that most of us know very well of, so decorating the interiors with white will
make the space more light efficient. Similarly, the application of white to the exteriors will make the building more heat efficient. ABOUT THE COLOUR: Before describing white as a colour, there is a focus on colour schemes. During the development of any project, a designer has 2 options regarding a colour scheme, either to go for analogous colour scheme or choose complementary colours. Now, with both the above options, white is the best colour for the reason that in analogous colour scheme similar kind of shades are used in all materials. Thus, if we opt for any dark
hue or any other shade of hue after a few days these will create a negative atmosphere in a particular space whereas white instead will never create an effect of boredom but rather a positive aura always. Similarly, with complementary colour scheme, any other colour or hue other than white provides very less complementary options whereas white is the only colour with an entire ocean of options for the scheme. Thus, there is a wide range available while using white thus giving a sober, sophisticated and elegant look to the applied space filling the surrounding with positive waves.
