HOUSE OF AMARA
As the architect behind the design of "Stone by Amara," my vision was to redefine the traditional stone supplier showroom experience by drawing inspiration from the world of art galleries.
​
In contrast to the dusty, disorganized spaces often associated with stone suppliers, I envisioned a showroom that would captivate visitors from the moment they entered. Drawing upon the principles of gallery design, I crafted a space that exudes elegance, sophistication, and a sense of curated luxury.
​
The layout of the showroom was meticulously planned to resemble the fluidity and flow of a well-curated art exhibition. Each stone slab is treated as a unique masterpiece, carefully positioned and illuminated to highlight its natural beauty and individual characteristics. Just as in an art gallery, patrons are encouraged to wander freely, allowing them to discover and appreciate the diverse array of stone types on display.
Lighting played a crucial role in enhancing the visual appeal of the space, with carefully positioned fixtures casting a warm, inviting glow upon the stone slabs. This strategic use of lighting not only accentuates the textures and colors of the stone but also creates an ambiance that is both welcoming and refined.
Beyond showcasing meticulously cut slabs, we’ve also brought in massive, unprepared stone blocks, inviting you to immerse yourself in their raw texture and unparalleled quality. Experience the exclusivity of feeling these monumental pieces firsthand, allowing you to truly appreciate the essence of luxury and craftsmanship in every detail.
In addition to the visual experience, I also focused on creating a tactile environment that would engage visitors on a sensory level. Smooth surfaces, clean lines, and carefully curated materials contribute to an atmosphere of luxury and sophistication, inviting patrons to not only see but also touch and experience the stones firsthand.
