Two faces of travertine - the elegance of a day and the magic of a starry night

We are proud to present our project, the winner of Trawertyn Design competition 2017. The task was to show unique use of travertine from Raciszyn Quarries, in architecture or interior projects.

We presented traverine slabs in a commercial interior like lounge area in a hotel, restaurant or club. Because we love lighting design and the effect that light can have on architecture, we used specially travertine filled with pigmented resin. Special element in this project was the pigment - a fluorescent powder. In that way the travetine wall can look completly different depending on the light type.

In a traditional light - natural or artificial, pigment is invisible, so we can admire natural beauty of the travertine and its 3D structure. This is the perfect finishing for elegant interiors and day events. In an ultraviolet light, which is hidden behind the blocks of travertine, the wall starts to shine. This beautiful effect can be mixed with colorful lighting to create an unique nightclub atmosphere.
