When designer Mauricio Gutiérrez of Design Influence undertook this home renovation project in Illinois (USA), it was clear to him that he needed quality materials that were aesthetically powerful and durable. Gutiérrez had collaborated with Cosentino in the past and was familiar with the wide range of materials and applications, and knew that they not only allowed him to bring his creative vision to life, but also to offer solutions for every room in the house.

For more than a year, the Cosentino team worked hand in hand with the designer and fitter to bring this impressive project to life. A house that never ceases to amaze in which materials have been used in a very innovative way. The result is a true testament to the versatility and ability of Cosentino materials to translate the ideas of the plan into reality.

Jola Skóra and Anna Olga Chmielewska, founders of the creative studio Jam Kolektyw, have put their expertise in architecture and design into practice with the launch of their own furniture collection. Two table models and a console table make up this collection in which the original Dekton Liquid Sky colour is the main material.

‘We have long been in love with the technique of marbling, in which dyes are applied to create an image that is then transferred to paper. The Cosentino pattern refers to this technique, but comes in an incomparably more durable material. Dekton Liquid Sky stole our hearts from the first moment we saw it,’ the designers explain. ‘We love the fact that it does not pretend to be anything, or to imitate natural stone, but rather is its artistic and original interpretation.’

Among the 250 companies housed on the 2,800-hectare Research Triangle Park corporate campus in North Carolina, a recent project stands out for its innovative use of design to create a space for collaboration, creativity and interaction. Elisa Christopher, from Phillips Architecture design studio, was commissioned for this project in which the company wanted to give a new look to a lobby and staircase area using Dekton by Cosentino.

The client wanted a material that would surprise potential and existing employees and create a striking appearance at first glance. The designer had already worked with Cosentino in the past and thought that it would be the ideal material to add character and elegance to the space. At Cosentino’s industrial park in Almería, Christopher was able to see the product first hand and discover the endless design possibilities that Dekton has to offer. Taking advantage of its technical and aesthetic properties on such a large campus was a challenge for her and she jumped at the chance.

Luxury and sophistication suit the tastes of the owners of this house in Florianópolis, Brazil, designed by Ana Paula Ronchi Arquitetura. In this house, natural lines and a range of neutral and light tones create functional and versatile spaces in which customised pieces designed by the architecture studio itself have been added.

Dekton Arga was used for this project, not only for its beauty but also for its technical properties. ‘We chose Cosentino materials for their strength and sophistication, as well as for their perfect integration with the range of colours designed for this project,’ the studio explains.

Creating a new layout for the bar, with a design based on warm colours and special materials to give it a unique touch, was the wish of the owner of the Van der Valk Hotel Duiven, located in the city of the same name, in The Netherlands. The proposed design for this radical change, realised in collaboration with the Hans Nuijten and Nijboer studios, was beyond expectations. The result is a bar area with a luxurious and intimate atmosphere, full of quality details.

A perfect combination of a homely atmosphere and an ideal business environment. Furthermore, the use of different types of illumination and materials, including Dekton, has resulted in a space of great versatility and functionality.
