Centura Montréal Highlights a Residential Project in Frelighsburg

— August 20, 2025 — Art & Design
Centura Montréal presents a residential project in Frelighsburg, Quebec, owned by designers Caroline Sidaros and Alain Desgagné. The space serves as a practical case study for the application of the 'GLOCAL' collection of ceramic tiles.

The materials Centura Montréal employed in the making of this residence create a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living, complete with a consistent visual language and minimal upkeep needs. The tiles are highlighted not merely as a flooring choice but as a fundamental component of the home’s design philosophy. The interior spaces boast large formats for the tiles with a specific textured finish for the pool deck to address safety concerns without compromising the aesthetic.

The residence itself is described as a highly functional environment designed for both daily life and frequent entertaining, featuring adaptable spaces like a multi-purpose room and a streamlined kitchen that emphasizes concealed storage and clean lines. The overall ambiance takes inspiration from the understated luxury and meticulous detail orientation of boutique hotels.
