01 / Before Vitium

A room of small samples.

Racks displayed small samples of different materials, each approximately 15 × 15 cm.

02 / With Vitium

A showroom of surfaces.

Large-format designs, full-wall slabs, kitchens and tables present the Vitium offer at a scale visitors can experience.

More than a new display

A fabricator.
A new way to create.

The showroom is one visible part of a wider change: International Stone can introduce its customers to personalised surfaces and the Vitium process behind them.

01 / EXPERIENCE

See design at scale.

Full-height slabs and large samples make colour, movement and texture easier to explore than a small sample alone.

02 / APPLICATIONS

Imagine the finished space.

Kitchen displays and tables show how a surface design can become part of an interior.

03 / CONVERSATION

Bring people together.

The showroom welcomes architects, designers and end customers to explore possibilities with the International Stone team.
