LAVAMOSAIC

Summer is here once again, hot and unstoppable, and is making us dream of escapes from everyday life. The luckiest of us have already booked flights to our next destinations. The trip, however, does not begin when the plane takes off but as soon as you set foot in the airport… because the atmosphere around you suddenly changes; you get into holiday mood and everything seems to be preparing you for the invariably exciting experience of air travel: the colorful crowds, the enthusiasm and impatience in passengers’ eyes, the bright shops. One of them is Everest, at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport, a snack and coffee shop that welcomes visitors in a friendly, modern and attractive space designed to please the eye and help them relax. PROLAT contributed to this with one of its classical, high quality products, LavaMosaic, which is used for interior floor coating. LavaMosaic is a practical and beautiful anti-slip floor material that exhibits outstanding mechanical strength and therefore is ideal for all sorts of small and big public or private areas. PROLAT recommends it unconditionally not only for shop, eating establishment and hotel floors but for private residence floors as well. Thanks to its natural beauty, LavaMosaic, which is available in various colors, offers a fine aesthetic result and excellent functionality and, since no joints are needed in its application, PROLAT guarantees that it is particularly easy to clean with ordinary cleaning agents, as long as it has been covered with the special varnish that prevents staining by pollutants, oils, etc. Everest, in Athens International Airport, is a warm little welcome and farewell corner and PROLAT is proud of its contribution to its hospitable and tasteful environment. So, have a great summer and wonderful, magical trips!

After a difficult winter and many months of restrictions, the Greek summer is shyly smiling to us and tourism is taking off again. We start dreaming of travelling once again and airports are already bustling with life. The joy of travelling starts at the airport – especially if it is an impressive one, like the recently upgraded Thessaloniki International Airport ‘Macedonia’, which is now double in size, with a modern design and plenty of new shops and eating establishments. One of its most popular restaurants is La Pasteria, which bears the signature of Chadios Architects and promises to make the waiting time of passengers and visitors a pleasant and relaxing experience. Of course, in a restaurant, dishes are what matters most, but the ambience also plays a significant role. And this is where PROLAT came in, applying to the floors of La Pasteria one of its top quality products, LavaMosaic. LavaMosaic is ideal for interior floor coating and PROLAT unreservedly recommends it not only for private residences but also for all kinds of shops, hotels and eating establishments where floors are subject to heavy use, as it is a particularly hard-wearing and anti-slip material, which, thanks to a special varnish, does not stain and is remarkably easy to clean. PROLAT guarantees that, apart from being perfectly functional, LavaMosaic also offers an impeccable aesthetic result, which can ideally set off the decoration, atmosphere and personality of a place. In addition, it is available in a wide variety of colours that can satisfy all demands and preferences. Enjoy, then… and have nice and safe trips!

What role does workplace play in work performance? A most important one, according to the findings of all relevant research. It has indeed been proved that a pleasant, safe and functional work environment has a positive effect on personnel, creating feelings of wellbeing and eagerness for action that contribute decisively to productivity increase and job satisfaction. The same goes for appropriate colour selection, of course. The layout and decoration of this spacious and sunny office in Aghios Dimitrios, Athens, was based on this rationale, making good use of one of the highest quality products of PROLAT suitable for interior floor coating: LavaMosaic. Given that LavaMosaic is an anti-slip material that exhibits outstanding mechanical strength, PROLAT unreservedly recommends it for all kinds of professional places. Moreover, its natural beauty and the restful, discreet colours in which it is available offer a particularly tasteful final effect and the uninterrupted, joint-free surface makes the space look larger and accents the modern decoration. Finally, PROLAT guarantees that, thanks to a special varnish, LavaMosaic is easily cleaned and does not stain, which makes it the most practical and reliable solution even for conditions of continuous and hard use. What else could one expect from a floor coating material?

What can make a difference and turn one of the many identical impersonal buildings of a big city into a really interesting one? PROLAT has the answer: the right materials; not just quality materials but special and unique ones that can give colour, life and character to any residence or workplace, such as Arte de Pelo hairdresser’s in Petroupoli, Athens. LavaPaint, for instance, the finishing render that PROLAT applied to the façade and walls of the two-storey building, is not an ordinary paint that can offer nothing but a merely painted surface; its slightly coarse texture creates a rugged sense of naturalness surprisingly appealing to the eye. As in every shop, the material needed for interior floors should be practical, hard-wearing and easy to clean, but at the same time attractive to clients too. Once again, PROLAT had the solution: LavaMosaic is an anti-slip floor coating with outstanding mechanical strength and no joints and, thanks to a special varnish, it never stains. Furthermore, it is distinguished for its natural beauty. A special touch of freshness and elegance is added to the ergonomically simple and modernly decorated interior with the use of Betocore for mirror stands and partitions. With Betocore, one of the most innovative and versatile products of PROLAT, you can create original and tasteful objects and furniture that stand out thanks to their concrete-like appearance and texture. Finally, the balcony was coated with Quartz Mosaic, another product of PROLAT which combines all the aesthetic advantages of natural quartz stone in addition to the essential qualities that any exterior floor coating material should exhibit (anti-slip properties, ease of cleaning, wear resistance and resistance to sunlight and all weather conditions). Behind every beautiful and functional place, apart from architectural inspiration and passion for decoration, there is usually another open secret: the choice of the appropriate materials that will best serve its purpose and show its image to advantage.
