September 29 to October 2, Hall 9 / Booth C6. An evocative concept, the excellence of made in Italy.
The MGI Group at Marmomac in the sign of Botticino Classico® with Botticino Allure. A strong project, an opportunity to bring attention back to this extraordinary material, today almost provocative.
An approach that expresses one common thought, an idea of spaces that focuses on welcoming and meeting in a setting where the warm ivory hues of Botticino Classico® punctuate the atmosphere. Following the simple but effective corporate philosophy, shape, unique, stone, shaping unique stones without compromise. It is Botticino Allure, indeed, scheduled from September 29 to October 2, 2021 at the Veronafiere exhibition center and on the www.marmomac.com/visita-marmomac-plus/ platform.
The sense of the initiative is the set up of a format with an architectural matrix capable of enhancing the language of marble that stands out on polished and split surfaces, merging with multimedia in a continuous process of dialogue. The first impact is the volumes of the walls, a mix of smooth and natural surfaces that create visual filters in a game that highlights details and textures. One wall hosts the in-depth feature dedicated to the mural The Gandhi of Botticino, the street art work Tempus Edax Rerum created by artist Vera Bugatti in collaboration with Fabio Maria Fedele, on the occasion of the quarter-century anniversary of Lombarda Marmi, a leader in the extraction of the precious Botticino material. The added touch is the decorative element of the modular seat, characterized by geometric lines and made entirely of Caldia®, a fine marble quarried in the Apuan Alps in MGI-owned quarries. The collected spaces allow an enveloping relationship, synonymous with elegant and rarefied intimacy, leading inside a path that is enhancement of the material.
The Botticino Classico® Coffee Table Challenge International Competition, aimed at architects, designers and young designers, will be presented on the occasion. Follow updates on the dedicated page

CALDIA®
EXCAVATION SITE - Massa (MS), ITALY
FEATURES - This is a valuable material mined at the quarry located in Rocchetta. Main characteristics of this material are a very pure background and fine veins from mint green to gray to brown; what makes Caldia® even more distinctive is the wide range of types that originate from these streaks.
