Aesthetic functional solutions for carrying out a successful contract project

Interior design and architecture projects which are geared towards contract spaces must count on not only high quality standards, but also carefully-worked aesthetics which can project the image that each business wants to show. Design is one of the other key factors when it comes to choosing the... materials which will shape a contract space. The possibility of meeting client demands regarding shapes, colours and finishes makes the work done by interior designers and architects easier, who look at creating atmospheres which match the identity of the company 100%. As well as that, since we are dealing with medium-high traffic atmospheres, the contract spaces demand highly durability materials whose appearance remains unaffected during their service life. In order to achieve this, the aforementioned materials must be resistant and have easy-to-clean properties, as well as low maintenance, so that the everyday use of the space does not have an effect on either the colour or the finish. Although material quality is key when it comes to making the right choice, the support given to professionals is of equal importance so that they can carry out their projects in an excellent way. Here at Krion, we are aware of the needs that interior designers, designers and architects may have whenever they carry out a contract project and this is the reason why we strive to give aesthetic and functional solutions which enhance their work. Aesthetic adaptability Aesthetics is key in the contract sector. Each brand has its own identity which must be portrayed in the space. For that purpose, Krion counts on the Ad Hoc service, where you can find specific and unique Krion colours for big projects, allowing each business to be different from the rest in the sector. The adaptation to the space is also very important in a material, since professionals sometimes have to deal with small areas, corners in difficult places and particular specifications. In this regard, the thermoforming benefits of the KrionTM mineral compact, along with the possibility of having customised furniture, make it easier for designers and architects to successfully meet client requirements. Backlighting is another benefit which Krion counts on, since it is possible to include the logo of the company on the same surface without creating unnecessary joints, therefore achieving unique finishes in the creation of an incomparable professional atmosphere. 2. The durability of the material Going beyond aesthetics, the material that shapes a contract space must fit in with a series of essential requirements. The full-body condition of KrionTM allows for the material to be easily repaired when there are scratches, stains and superficial burns. A property which, together with the zero porosity, ensures easy cleaning, hygiene and safety for the material against bacteria. The quality of the material also lies in the resistance it shows when compared to other materials used in the contract sector, namely: wood and methacrylate. Unlike these, Krion does not suffer from corner spalling and it remains unchanged over time. The colour stability is assured due to the research in ageing machines which allow us to know how the material would age over time, and furthermore, how to prevent it from happening from the get-go. Support for professionals For professionals who design a contract project, their final objective is to carry out work which makes customers feel satisfied with everything. To achieve this, we must understand each one's priorities and carry them out with maximum efficiency. At Krion, we have the A&D department, which advises and supports designers and architects throughout the whole process. In relation to the economic aspects, A&D oversees the advise given, and the investigation regarding the viability of the project. This is done in order to encourage profitability for all participating agents, through optimisation actions. Technically, professionals have the experience of the Krion team at their disposal, in terms of the material possibilities, and furthermore, they also have unlimited access to the BIM brand library to streamline the creation process. In addition, the department helps to solve any doubts or unforeseen circumstances that may arise in a project, providing a quick and agile solution to positively influence the workflow. To sum up, Krion starts a circular economy plan which favours each of the different professionals participating in a project. A plan in which the company becomes another link in the chain with a clear objective, which is: to work on improving user experiences on an aesthetic, functional and beneficial level.

The versatility of Krionâ„¢ in the Montemar Maritim Hotel Buffet

Spaces which are used for food preparation must have very high hygienic standards. The direct contact which these places have with food increases the demand for health standards to be excellent. In order to be sure that food is safe from any type of contamination in its surroundings, what is known... as cross-contamination, certain hygienic protocols are required which cover a wide range of actions. From the staff’s clothes, those who actually handle the food, and cleaning products, to surfaces on which food is handled, all the links in the food chain must follow the hygiene rules that are set out. The project by Rosa Colet Rosa Colet was the designer that oversaw the remodelling of the Montemar Maritim Hotel Buffet in Santa Susanna, Barcelona. The project itself needed an aesthetic renovation which would have a fresh, dynamic and innovative character; capable of maintaining the strict hygiene standards, synonymous with the hotel industry. The self-service and the hot and cold buffet areas needed a strong image, so the structures made of steel, iron and wood were covered with the KrionTM solid surface. The thermoformed capacity of the material allowed the tables to be shaped with original angles and volumes on which food is handled, making the area more attractive which was lit up by LED lighting in bright colours. Why was KrionTM opted for? In order to get an original aesthetic which followed health standards, versatile material was needed. According to Rosa: “On a technical level, it was essential to bank on an easy-to-clean non-porous material, on which the equipment and the cold hobs could be used”. The zero porosity by KrionTM greatly enhances food safety, because of its bacteriostatic feature, which, when joined to its cleaning capacity, turns the compact mineral into the perfect option for areas that come into contact with food. In relation to the aesthetic: “working with different joined polygonal levels which emulated origami, without any joints or intersections was sought-after”. The curving versatility of KrionTM, its formability, the backlighting and engraving capacity, made the designer confidently opt for the Solid Surface. The slight thickness of the sheets and the full-bodied condition which maintains the colour compact were also features that made the design work and the final result easier, thanks to carpintería ESVA. For Rosa Colet, banking on materials which offer the best result is vital in her projects in hotels, restaurants and shops. In this sense, the architect has used KrionTM on a large number of applications, such as: signs, bars, façades, counters, desks and furniture. With the endless possibilities that this material offers and the quality which it comes with, it always results in being a very good choice, either as the main material or as a complement. Having a famous and reputable company like the Porcelanosa Grupo means quality in design which, offers both architects and interior designers important back up in every sense of the word.

Krionâ„¢ is installed in the emblematic RH Bayren Spa Hotel in Gandia

In the heart of Gandia, right in front of the beach, we see the symbolic RH Bayren & Spa Hotel. A four-star hotel which has become a complete benchmark in the hotel sector on the east coast of Spain, thanks to: its unbeatable location which is next to the seafront; its incredible views and... because of providing its guests with a high level of service, together with its passion for detail. The hotel has seen its image redesigned and its capacity increased in order to improve its facilities with four new floors added with 16 rooms in total. The architect, Ainhoa Hernández, who has overseen the design, has found the perfect match for this project in none other than KRION® Solid Surface which has brought this project with diverse building requirements to life. The hotel catches the eye because of its minimalistic and modern design, accentuated due to the pure white colour from the Krion® Lux K-LIFE 1100 series,material which has been chosen to build a 256m2 ventilated facade, which creates an amazing lighting effect. Technically speaking, the material offers features which make it ideal for being installed in outdoor areas close to the beach, such as: its resistance to sunlight, the outdoors, saltpetre and sand erosion. To these properties is added the K-LIFE concept that provides great durability in the aesthetics of the facade and in its maintenance due to the easy cleaning and almost zero porosity of the Krion® Lux K-LIFE 1100. The material, thanks to its thermocurvable possibilities and invisible joints, allows limitless surfaces and creative shapes to be designed. As well as that, KRIONTM offers a wide chromatic range of sheets which greatly increase the aesthetic possibilities for its custom-made application in every type of project which looks for uniqueness and emphasis. The expansion and the new image of the RH Bayren & Spa Hotel in Gandía, consolidates it as a place full of commodities and innovations for all those tourists who want to take it easy and enjoy the splendid beaches in Gandia.
