In addition, the study Cc-arkwho followed the design and implementation of this intervention, wanted to enhance the shape of the hexagonal tile with a game of progressive dematerialization achieved through the installation of elements that from the lower part thin out towards the ceiling.

Lo same theme it is reproposed in the area adjacent to the bathroom, dedicated to space laundryin which the hexagonal tiles chase each other on the walls alternating with the shelves.

These bathroom tiles are inspired by lava stone and are proposed in this project in two contrasting shades: Pumice and Lava.

Il bathroom claddingplayed on the alternation of these light and dark elements, establishes a direct line with the existing black floor pursuing an overall stylistic balance.

Nell’area showersince it is a bathroom on the attic floor, a full-height cladding is proposed so as to ensure the walls the right protection from any formation of condensation.

Thanks to the resin, it is drawn on the wall a reason stylized on the theme of spray which resulted in contrasting white geometric linear signs on a light gray background, with a complex effect in faux marble.
