About Colourform Statio Expositionis

Colourform est statio expositionis excogitata ad alvea, receptacula pluvialia et labra abluendi in nundinis mercatoriis exhibenda. Consilium ad compositum minerale refertur, materiam ex dolomite et resina flexili confectam. Altae moles geometricae saxa et dolomitis strata in memoriam revocant, quae sub pressura et calore alto formata sunt. Color regiones separatas definit, ita ut duae notae simul exhibeantur dum distinctae manent. Producta in collectionibus disposita sunt ut ambitus facilius intellegatur. Mensa potoria et areae ministerii in parte quietiore stationis collocantur.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The idea of the stand refers to the Mineral Composite technology - the material from which our client's products are made of.
Mineral Composite is a combination of dolomite and flexible resin.
The Dolomites were formed about 250 million years ago as a result of the volcanic activity. Then, under the pressure and high temperature, the limestone layers turned into dolomite.
We focused on dolomite because the rock that was formed millions of years ago is transforming into a beautiful and functional product just right in front of our eyes. It’s amazing to see the power of nature.
Dimensions & Packaging: 50000 mm x 50000 mm x 5500 mm
Tags: color, form, geometry, nature, functionality, detail
Production Technology: We created a metaphor where huge rocks and dolomite deposits were turned into tall lumps of the stand. The aim was to show the power of nature from which the material from which the bathtubs, shower trays and washbasins are made. When designing, we were guided by the principle - to create a beautiful and functional stand.
The stand was embedded in the latest trends - geometric forms. Tracking and following what is currently fashionable, and even more, predicting trends is very important for our client. Marmite and Acquabella have always offered us the latest design of their products and this is how we present them at trade fairs. The geometry of shapes introduces us to a dreamlike, futuristic world. This procedure is to distract us from reality and allow us to focus on the presented product.
Design Challenge: The stand idea had one important condition - to bind and distinguish two brands at the same time - Marmite and Acquabella.
Bind because they are presented together, belong to one capital group: The Engineered Stone Group. Distinguish - because we still show two different brands, which so far have presented in a completely different way and each of them wanted to keep at least part of their image.
Research: We created a metaphor where huge rocks and dolomite deposits were turned into tall lumps of the stand. The aim was to show the power of nature from which the material from which the bathtubs, shower trays and washbasins are made.
Inspiration: Architecture - Minimalist architecture, sculpture, gallery, monolith
Geometric forms, playing with colors to create different zones at the stand
Project Duration: KBIS 2022, Orlando, USA
8-10.02.2022
Operation Flow: All functions at the stand have been planned so that using them is functional and pleasant. Products on both parts of the stand are presented in groups / collections, which makes it easier to get to know the offer. Common area - the bar counter and facilities are located in a somewhat secluded part so that they do not attract the first attention of visitors, but at the same time in a place where both brands have easy access.
