About Laodikeia and Its Symbols Revestimiento Mural de Piedra Natural

Laodikeia y Sus Símbolos es una colección de revestimientos murales de piedra natural inspirada en los motivos de la antigua ciudad de Laodicea. La colección está compuesta por módulos de relieve tallados en piedra, principalmente de 60 por 120 cm, disponibles también en formatos de 60 por 60 cm y 30 por 60 cm. Las placas de piedra natural se cortan en máquinas de cinco ejes, se tallan en máquinas de tres ejes y, posteriormente, son pulidas por artesanos de la piedra. Los módulos pueden combinarse de múltiples maneras, como un rompecabezas, de modo que cada superficie puede componerse libremente. Los motivos históricos se reinterpretan para los interiores contemporáneos.
