Playing with contrast to design a hospitality experience

This hotel lobby gives inspiration on how mixing textures and finishes to create dynamism and balance at the same time.

The central desk is made with VIS engineered surface featuring Nereide marble décor in Lucida finish. Evoking the grace of Botticino marble, Nereide is enhanced in its waterlike aesthetics by the glossy aspect of Lucida. It creates a fluid, reflective design that elegantly welcomes the hotel’s guests.

In contrast with this sense of fluidity, the walls of the lobby show earthy tones and a vigorous geometric rhythm. Accompanied by brushed sand painting, the dark nuance of Tuet Galea Grey plays with light and shadow through its reeded texture, giving movement and deepness to the hospitality environment.

This interplay between deep look and glossy style transforms the lobby into more than just a transitional space: it becomes an immersive design experience. By thoughtfully combining contrasting materials, the space achieves both visual interest and welcoming warmth, setting the tone for a refined and memorable stay.
