Our hallmark is our professionalism and a true passion
for what we do and it is these characteristics which led us to team up with
the fashion designer Romeo Gigli and his architect Michael Wolf.
The famous Italian designer's showroom in the Navigli quarter of Milan
is a fusion of natural shades and objects and contemporary design;
a harmonious blend of form and colour. Using a unique selection of natural stone,
we created a walkway which winds its way across the showroom floor. |

A stylish catwalk linking two contrasting realities, because the paving doesn't
just cross the courtyard to reach the other side,
it epitomises nature reaching out into the modern world.
At the same time, the colour of the slabs was chosen
carefully to resemble the external facade of the showroom.
Contrast and fusion running in parallel.
The warm tones of the stone, its soft outline and the natural
cobblestones used in-between the slabs contrast with a building
filled with glass, transparency, plexiglas and steel. |

The result is incredible; the stone envelops visitors with
its refined uniqueness while stretching out towards the showroom, caressing
its surroundings as if to converse with the contemporary design,
playing with the alternation of light and substance. |
