Camden Town Hall: A Historic Civic Landmark
Camden Town Hall, located in the heart of London, stands as a testament to the city’s rich architectural and civic heritage. This Grade II listed building, completed in 1937, has served as the administrative and civic hub for the London Borough of Camden for decades.
Upon entering Camden Town Hall, visitors are greeted by a dramatic black and white marbled floor that leads to a balustraded top-lit staircase of white marble with dark marble pilasters.
This flooring project showcases the beauty and versatility of natural stone. By combining Nero Storm, Statuario Michelangelo, and Belgium Black, the design achieves a balance of boldness, elegance, and sophistication. Each stone contributes its unique characteristics, creating a visually stunning and functional space that stands the test of time. The thoughtful selection and application of these stones highlight the transformative power of natural materials in interior design.
In addition, Eramosa and Filleto Rosso stone was used for wall cladding in the corridors of the various areas.
Nero Storm: A Bold Statement
Nero Storm, also known as Ruivina Antique, is a striking black marble with prominent grey veins. This stone was chosen for the main entrance and hallway areas, where its dramatic appearance sets the tone for the entire space. The polished finish of Nero Storm enhances its natural beauty, reflecting light and adding depth to the flooring. Its durability and elegance make it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas, providing both functionality and visual appeal.
Statuario Michelangelo: Timeless Elegance
Its white background and elegant grey veining, Statuario Michelangelo brings a sense of luxury and sophistication to spaces. This stone’s versatility allows it to seamlessly blend with various design elements, creating a cohesive and harmonious environment.
Belgium Black: Sleek Sophistication
Belgium Black, also known as Noir Belge, is an almost pure black surface, radiating an aura of elegant sophistication. Its smooth texture and deep black color add a touch of refined luxury, making it a perfect choice for countertops, floors and wall cladding.
