The design capitalises on free availability of tiles to make not just flooring & services, but also for making partitions, mock-ups and even furniture items out of them.
Sliding cassettes for tile display line the longer sides of the showroom’s rectangular floor space on the east side. On the other side, sets of frameless, retractable channels punctuate the space for live mock-ups.
The clear in-between space is covered from above by white oak rafters which support light fixtures & other services.
Display of sanitary ware & fixtures as well as offices, pantry & toilets are provided towards the rear end.
The clear in-between space is covered from above by white oak rafters which support light fixtures & other services. Spatially, the arrangement makes for a large, welcoming area that is at once the entrance lounge, waiting, product display & selection as well as a place for discussion. Freed from specific usage & subsuming all internal movement, it allows customers to enjoy seeing displayed products and overall design together.
