About Dekton and Cosentino Pavilion 展覽館

Dekton同Cosentino展覽館係為上海一個設計博覽會而設計嘅展覽空間。展館佔地150平方米,採用開放式佈局引導參觀者穿梭其中。空間提供三大功能:產品展示、客戶互動,以及咖啡水吧。地面、牆身、天花同櫃檯全部鋪上超薄石材板,厚度只有4毫米,尺寸最大達3.3米乘1.4米。石板採用乾掛方式安裝,所以展館可以喺十二個鐘頭內組裝完成,之後仲可以拆卸再重用。

Unique Properties
1.Purpose:
"Design Shanghai" is Asia's most prestigious design event, gathering over 600 domestic and international design brands from more than 40 countries and attracting nearly 200,000 visitors. This case focuses on the exhibition pavilion design for the Spanish brands DEKTON & COSENTINO at "Design Shanghai," covering an area of 150 square meters.
2.Functionality:
The project, a smaller exhibition hall, utilizes an open layout to draw in visitors while offering three main functions: 1. Product display, 2. Customer interaction, 3. Coffee and water bar services.
Dimensions & Packaging
Dekton Slim's maximum original dimensions are 3.3x1.4 meters, with a thickness of only 4mm. This presents a visually impactful large panel while significantly reducing the structural load.

Production Technology
1.Dekton Slim slabs are ultra-thin, 4mm thick, and high-performance, ideal for indoor and outdoor walls, floors, and furniture, offering durability and resistance to wear and weather.

2.Prefabricated construction, with factory-made high-precision models, enables quick, 12-hour installation, cutting labor costs and pollution.

3.A lightweight support system, designed for DEKTON Slim's slim profile, uses light metals or composites for stable, less burdensome structures.
Design Challenge
1.Challenge: Dekton Slim slabs are processed and installed using prefabricated construction, enabling on-site assembly within 12 hours.

2.Research: Focuses on the slab's full size, ultra-thinness, and modular design for optimal material use.

3.Technology: Utilizes dry hanging construction for easy dismantling and reuse of Dekton Slim, minimizing environmental impact.
Research
To highlight Dekton Slim slabs' benefits, their key features were explored: full size, lightweight, durability, and 3D seamless design. Used in a 3.3x1.4 meter format for floors, ceilings, walls, and countertops, they create a cohesive look, showcasing expansive surfaces and integrated design. The open layout optimizes visitor flow and product visibility.
Inspiration
The four major features of Dekton Slim slabs are:
1.Large Size:
The exhibit hall utilizes Dekton Slim's maximum original dimensions of 3.3x1.4 meters for modular design.
2.Lightweight:
With a thickness of only 4mm, it significantly reduces structural load.
Integration: Leveraging its lightweight and durable properties for a unified floor-to-ceiling wall design, it presents the visual aesthetics of a bar counter extending from the floor.
3.Recycling (Dry Hanging Construction):
The construction method is dry hanging, allowing for the material to be easily dismantled and recycled, thus reducing resource waste.
Project Duration
This project started in Shanghai, China, on May 21, 2023, and concluded in Shanghai on June 11, 2023.
Operation Flow
Imagine a material as thin as paper yet as sturdy as stone:
Dekton Slim easily covers walls to floors, ideal for bar counters, ceilings, furniture, and more with its versatility.

Environmental Pioneer: A special hook system makes the material easy to install and dismantle, supporting reuse and showcasing an eco-friendly philosophy.
Innovative Experience: The flexibility of the material offers a completely new spatial interaction experience for people.
