University Campus HK
For a prominent University Campus in Hong Kong, the architectural challenge was to integrate a vast outdoor landscape that balances prestige with extreme durability. Educational institutions require surfaces that can withstand constant foot traffic while maintaining a professional aesthetic. To meet these demands, Altra Pietra was selected as the primary collection, specifically utilizing the sophisticated series Castello in the tones Grey and Anthrazit.
Inspired by the authentic textures of natural stone and manufactured in Italy, the Castello series within the Altra Pietra collection offers a structured appearance. The interplay between the neutral Grey and the deep Anthrazit allows for clear zoning of pedestrian pathways and communal plazas. In Hong Kong's high-density environment, this ceramic stone provides critical technical advantages: it is exceptionally load-bearing, slip-resistant, and entirely non-porous. These features are vital for safety during frequent heavy rains. Furthermore, its resistance to UV radiation ensures the campus remains vibrant for decades. By implementing STONE NV’s collection, the university has created a modern, low-maintenance environment that fosters academic inspiration through high-quality design.
