Orbital If you’re looking for the functional characteristics of hard surface flooring but would like a more elegant look, 2tec2 has what you need. The seamless tiles and rolls are available in numerous colours, shapes and sizes, allowing full personalisation for each purpose. After years of research and development, 2tec2 was launched in 2005. Over the years, many renowned brands and architects discovered the wonderful qualities of 2tec2 flooring. Its look, functionalities and endless options for customisation quickly made it into the preferred flooring for contracted projects. One of the more recent projects is the ‘Library @ Harbourfront’, an amazing library in the world’s largest shopping centre near the waterfront in Singapore. Architect Zee Choing was inspired by its seaside location, adding a maritime touch to the entire project. Using 2tec2, the floors have wave-like patterning, using colours to mark different sections and routes throughout the library. “2tec2 is a sustainable, high-quality and elegant flooring solution,” Choing explains his choice. “It offered all the practical characteristics of a hard floor, while adding the look and feel of textile, combined with an enormous choice and options for customization. It was perfect for this project, allowing us to create an intimate, cosy atmosphere while keeping it easy to maintain and ready to greet hundreds of visitors every day.” www.2tec2.com
