The innovative showroom – known as Salon, the Matter Mastering Immersion – presents, in an experiential way, the different possibilities offered by COMPAC materials and becomes a space where architects, designers and professionals from these fields come to be inspired and transfer their ideas into real projects.
“This space is a meeting point for dialogue with professionals in the sector,” said Paco Sanchis, CEO of COMPAC, at the opening. “A place where we not only show what we are capable of doing, but also what architects and designers are able to create with our materials.”
Aware of the importance of experiencing, touching and seeing first-hand the materials in their different applications and sizes, from the smallest to the largest, COMPAC opens this showroom to enhance communication with designers to achieve unique projects of different scales and customized projects.
The showroom includes Materic Emotion, an 860 ft² space designed by Elisa Ossino that’s a sensory and cognitive path through COMPAC materials and its versatile range of applications and shapes. From surfaces to floors to sculptural furnishings, unexpected shapes surprise and lead visitors to discover the world of COMPAC.
In addition to this collaboration with Elisa Ossino, visitors will also be able to appreciate Arik Levy’s unique and exclusive designs for the Ice of Genesis collection. This collection, winner of the prestigious international award Best of the Best Red Dot Design, is suitable for both sculptural pieces and countertops as well as large-scale projects, such as cladding and flooring.
To visualize the ICE effect – which evokes the frozen lakes of the Arctic, a source of inspiration for the collection – the different versions are also displayed on large-format boards.
Levy’s Quartzrock countertop is also shown as a variation of COMPAC material use.
Terrazzo COMPAC and Obsidiana COMPAC, COMPAC’s most-sustainable material, are also exhibited in different formats and pieces that allow visitors to visualize the important work carried out by the R&D department and the technological progress and research to anticipate challenges posed by the construction industry, both in the field of sustainability and resistance and performance, and to respond to the needs of design, architecture, and art.
During the opening, Rhea is also exhibited, the countertop designed by Elisa Ossino with Terrazzo COMPAC High Performance Stone, a state-of-the-art material, which comes in order to increase the performance of traditional terrazzo, turning it into an more-resistant surface suitable for all types of indoor and outdoor applications.
The new showroom is located at 1777 NW 72nd Ave, Unit 2, in Miami. It can be visited from Monday to Friday from 8.00 am to 5.00 pm upon request by writing to customerservice@compac.us.
Founded in 1975, COMPAC is the first Spanish company specialized in the manufacture and distribution of terrazzo, quartz and Obsidiana surfaces for architecture and design. Since its origins, it has been pioneering company in terms of sustainability and innovation, committed to the creation of high-quality products and unique design.
