1800 Oak

Winner of two 2020 Gala Awards

The 1800 Oak renovation project by architecture firm Hartman Design Group carried out in Virginia, USA, is the winner of two 2020 Gala Awards. It took the top spot for both Design and Architecture of a Multi-Family Renovation and for Interior Merchandising of a Multi-Family Renovation Amenities Space. Laminam contributed to this outstanding result by providing finishes to enhance several of the vertical surfaces and a seat in the large entrance hall which greets both residents and visitors.

Hartman Design Group opted for Laminam surfaces to cover a visually stunning double-height interior walls

Hartman Design Group opted for Laminam I Naturali – Calacatta Oro Venato surfaces to cover a visually stunning double-height interior wall next to the entrance, the rear walls of reception, thus bringing a look of great formal refinement and elegance to the area, a door – for a ‘total look’ version of the Laminam Effect approach – fitted within the same walls that define it, the walls of the lift lobby, and lastly, a custom cantilever bench.

From an aesthetic point of view, we chose this specific product because it mimics the appearance of marble extremely realistically.

Phyllis Hartman explains why Laminam products, and I Naturali – Calacatta Oro Venato surfaces in particular, were chosen for the renovation project: “From an aesthetic point of view, we chose this specific product because it mimics the appearance of marble extremely realistically.” The finish, inspired by natural marble, does indeed capture all the appeal, charm and beauty of a stone which has been used to create some of the greatest works of architecture in history.

“From a technical point of view,” explains Phyllis Hartman, “we also needed a relatively lightweight material. And the lower weight of Laminam surfaces helped us greatly with the installation method and structure, both in terms of the walls (single storey and double height) and the bench. What led us to choose Laminam finishes was also the quality of their dimensional characteristics once the surfaces had been processed and applied in their position. Lastly, what ultimately convinced us was the cost and immediate availability of the product.”
