The "surface" is an integral part of our working life. We rest

arms and thoughts. Most interaction is mediated by a surface, so

 KITCHEN
Our kitchen characterises us. No room speaks more eloquently of our

display on open shelves. With its maverick personality Corian® lends
itself to almost any style of kitchen design. It permits the
assembly of sinks, counters or wall panels without visible seams,

functional space to a glamorous manifesto of trends and lifestyles.
Corian® has an integral role in the evolving bathroom. With a
formability, expansive colour range and warm touch, it lends itself
to freeform washbasins, monolithic bath designs, contemporary
wetrooms and stylish shelving solutions. And its resistance to
stains, scratches, mould and mildew makes it hygienic and easy to
care for.

materials.
Corian® is clever. It allows interior and industrial designers to
work with a material that is both precious and technological at the
same time. Curves, sharp corners and organic forms can be created
with a chromatic continuity that only Corian® allows.
In pure white or vivid, solid hues, it is a designer's dreams. Its
translucency adds a further dimension. Futuristic furniture,
illuminated sculptures unusual material combinations…new trends are
constantly emerging in the field of. Corian® and design.
