DESIGNER FRIENDS

DESIGNER FRIENDS "We first saw Bolon's material in a magazine. It looked so exciting that we immediately wanted to find out more about the company. A really good partnership has to begin with a great gut feeling and that's certainly the way we felt about Bolon from the start!" Humberto & Fernando Campana

DESIGNER FRIENDS GIULIO CAPPELLINI "I chose Bolón forseveral showroom and public area projects because I think that the material is beautiful, durable and contemporary, at the same time as it has a versatility which allows me to customise space in an optimal way. The wide range of colours and patterns in Bolon's collection makes it possible for me to achieve a unique style every time." Giulio Cappellini

DESIGNER FRIENDS "We were looking for a hard-wearing but comfortable metallic finish - something that is really hard to find! Bolon was the answer and what works really well is the way the floor reflects the light upwards - an unexpected bonus."
