ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
discovering a series of full-scale micro-architectures that bring different design visions to life. These installations have been developed in collaboration with leading names in Italian design. Within these spaces, Florim’ s brands and collections come together to offer versatile solutions: from ultra-thick technical slabs to the thinnest and most flexible curved surfaces, each material adapts to a wide range of design needs. The restyling also introduced four fully equipped co-working areas, conceived as collaborative spaces where professionals, designers, and the FLORIM team can come together to co-create and exchange ideas. Aesthetic consistency and high technical performance are woven into a narrative that goes far beyond the traditional concept of a showroom. This is a place to explore a new way of designing, one that’ s driven by innovation, sustainability, and emotional impact.
How was the immersive visitor experience developed, and how does the dialogue between ceramic material, light, and architecture unfold? A masterful use of lighting and the integration of digital content come together to create a truly sensory experience. Light plays a central role in guiding visitors through the space, highlighting textures, shaping atmospheres, and enhancing every material detail. Visitors find themselves immersed in a striking, emotionally engaging setting, where a dynamic visual narrative brings each environment to life. The material becomes a form of language, and every surface contributes to building a clear design vision. It’ s a new kind of tool for those imagining the spaces of tomorrow. Here, ceramic is no longer just a material, it becomes an integral part of architecture, a system that evokes emotion and inspires new forms of creativity. Designed to suggest concrete, functional solutions, Florim Gallery weaves together aesthetic consistency and technical performance, going far beyond the traditional showroom concept. Because this is a space meant to explore a new approach to design, one shaped by innovative, sustainable surfaces capable of delivering genuine emotional impact.
