Building in Madrid

Dekton ultra-compact sintering from Cosentino is one of the few building materials that, in addition to its use as kitchen and bathroom countertops, wall cladding, furniture, doors or flooring, is also used to create spectacular facades and elevations. The technical properties of this large-format surface and invisible edge joints mean that Dekton can precisely adapt to the complexity of a building. Not insignificant in this case is also the large range of formats, shades and thicknesses of the [...]

The shape of HeartFelt® Origami modules and their stiffening are based on this technique. This gives the felt panels additional stiffness and an attractive finish. The [...]

architecture

Architecture is the art of designing and building spatial forms and shaping the space between them. According to Vitruvius, author of the treatise "On Architecture of Books Ten," the basic principles of designing and constructing buildings are durability, utility and beauty.

Architecture provides a framework for living, working, learning and entertaining. The history of architecture is also the history of human civilization. It has shaped and changed over the centuries in accordance with the needs, current trends and available technological solutions. To this day, we can marvel at the elements of architecture of ancient cultures, admire the dominant styles in different centuries and see the diversity in architecture in different parts of the world.
