“Stone Lovers” is a unique event that celebrates the timeless beauty and versatility of marble in architecture and interior design. Curated by Platform Architecture and Design, this gathering brings together 13 renowned architects from across Europe, united by a shared passion for natural stone and its use in the most iconic and innovative projects.
Marble, a material rich in history and meaning, has always captivated artists and designers for its ability to blend strength with delicacy, grandeur with refinement. Through the testimonies of the participants, the event explores how this timeless material has been reimagined in a contemporary context, becoming the centerpiece of spaces that convey elegance, durability, and a deep respect for tradition.
Each architect, with their own style and vision, recounts the creative process that led to the realization of projects where marble is not merely a decorative element, but a true protagonist that interacts with its surrounding environment. Marble surfaces, with their unique veining, transform spaces into works of art, reflecting light and imparting a sense of eternity.
“Stone Lovers” is not only a tribute to this noble material but also an opportunity to rediscover marble in a new light, through the eyes of those who masterfully employ it. The participating architects, hailing from diverse cultural traditions, offer a varied perspective on how marble can be integrated into the most ambitious projects, from public architecture to the most intimate interiors.
The event culminates in a special editorial insert by Platform Architecture and Design, capturing the essence of these unique creations, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the world of marble design and discover the evolution of a material that, while remaining true to its roots, continues to surprise and inspire.
