This project highlights large-format sintered stone panels (800×2600mm), applied across walls, floors, and joinery surfaces. Beyond their striking marble-like aesthetic, the real value lies in how material science supports durability and lifecycle cost efficiency.
• Scale matters: Large-format panels reduce grout lines, minimising maintenance and creating cleaner visual continuity.
• Material resilience: Sintered stone offers high resistance to scratching, heat, and water—critical in New Zealand’s varied climates and high-use interiors.
• Design flexibility: Multi-panel matching allows seamless wraparound applications, giving architects greater freedom in both residential and commercial spaces.
The takeaway: As our sector seeks both efficiency and elevated design, advanced tile technologies are shifting from decorative layers to integral building components.
