LEGNO


Every company has a story to tell and ours is a love story which transcends through three generations
In 1950, Giovanni Battista Ciot founded the company in an office building on Saint-Laurent boulevard where it still operates to this day In the beginning, Ciot specialized in production of terrazzo and installation products. Giovanni’s eldest daughter, Margaret, worked alongside her father
In 1967, Joe Panzera, a client of Ciot, took over the reins and began diversifying the products and services offered thus rejuvenating the enterprise Joe and Margaret married soon after and had two daughters to whom they passed down their passion for innovation and renovation. Today, this new generation is ushering in a new era for Ciot
For the past fifty years, our product selection has constantly evolved and offers an impressive array of natural stone, ceramic, plumbing accessories and most recently, hardwood floors Additionally, we offer custom mosaics and exclusive services for architects and designers Ciot is constantly at the cutting-edge of the latest trends.
Ciot is an undisputed industry leader Present more than ever in the market with its eight locations in Canada and the United States, the business has recently unveiled its latest store concept in Atlanta in October 2019
Ciot’s future is undeniably bright.

The coastal style in interior design draws inspiration from the beach and ocean, creating a serene, relaxed, and breezy atmosphere
COLOR PALETTE: The coastal style typically features a light and airy color palette Whites, soft blues, sandy beiges, and seafoam greens are common, reflecting the colors of the beach, sky, and ocean
TEXTURES: Layering textures is essential in coastal interiors. Think of light linens, cottons, and woven fabrics. Rugs made from natural fibers like jute or sisal add to the tactile appeal.
FURNITURE: Natural materials are a hallmark of coastal design. This includes the use of wood (often whitewashed or driftwood finishes), rattan, wicker, and seagrass These materials bring in a rustic, beachy feel
Nautical and marine-themed decor items are prevalent. This includes seashells, coral, driftwood, rope, and maritime artifacts. Subtle use of these elements helps to avoid an overly thematic look
Stripes, particularly in blue and white, are a staple pattern in coastal design Other patterns might include subtle florals or geometric shapes reminiscent of ocean waves and beach motifs
is an excellent choice for a coastal style interior design.
Hardwood floors offer a natural, organic look that complements the serene and relaxed vibe of coastal interiors. The natural grain and texture of wood evoke the outdoors, aligning perfectly with the beachy, nature-inspired theme
Incorporating indoor plants, especially those that thrive in coastal environments like palms and succulents, adds a touch of greenery and further connects the interior space to the natural world.
Coastal style often features artwork that depicts beach scenes, ocean views, or marine life. Accessories such as glass vases, lanterns, and light, breezy curtains enhance the coastal vibe.
The goal of coastal design is to evoke the feeling of being at the beach. It aims to be calming, unpretentious, and refreshing, making the space feel like a vacation retreat
By incorporating these elements, coastal style creates an environment that is tranquil, welcoming, and infused with the essence of seaside living.
Fascination and respect for nature have always been at the core of Ciot' s product selection
Ciot Legno brings to your home the best the forest has to offer
For over 50 years, we have travelled the world's quarries to find treasures hidden deep in the mountains We are continuously amazed at the eons of natural history recorded in every slab of precious stone and marble
We strive to unearth the most exclusive and unique natural products, and this time, it' s deep in the forest that we have fallen in love with one of nature's most beautiful and noble materials: WOOD
Very much like natural stone, every layer and coloration of wood is a testimony to the passage of time which makes every tree unique
Long driven to find the most exclusive stone products, we now pour the same passion into wood, researching its history and provenance We seek the utmost quality, the richest colors and the most exquisite finishes the world's best artisans can produce.
