Ceramic cladding for hospitality

Lobbies, suites and restaurants: how to choose durable, photogenic surfaces for high-end hotels.
In high-end hotels, first impressions count. The lobby, seen for only a few seconds at check-in, sets the guest's expectations for the entire stay.
In those few seconds, the material speaks first. A three-dimensional porcelain wall is memorable, photogenic and searchable on social media. It is a marketing asset as well as an interior one.
A design note
Hospitality surfaces must also withstand intensive use: carts, luggage, spilled cocktails and cleaning staff. High-temperature fired porcelain handles all of this without compromising aesthetics.
The Maya and Cadenza collections are especially appreciated for lobbies and lounge bars; Arena for gourmet restaurants with classical references; Calipso for spa hotels and pool edges; and Numen for representative suites.
