An experiment in white
The colour white is popular in all areas and has a unique significance in modern architecture. White is the epitome of clarity, purity and sublimity. White accentuates the geometry of buildings in particular measure. And white orchestrates the play of light and shadow in multifaceted ways like no other colour.
From inspiration to texture
What inspires you when you think of the colour ‘white’ in your work? For our ‘Kaleidoscope’ section, we asked five architects this question and asked them to each send us a suitable quotation and a photo. Without any further input from the architects, our product design team developed an abstract white sample with a unique texture.
This allowed us to trace the process pathway from inspiration to research, interpretation and ultimately the material. Each of these samples represents but one of the many ways of translating inspiration into reality.

How light shapes render
Luca Selva’s inspiration turned texture
The path from inspiration to the actual built project is a long, but extremely exciting one. True samples are a first step in ascertaining what the end result would realistically be like. Here you can see the exclusive making of the sample that Prof Luca Selva inspired us to create.
