Choosing the internal surfaces for a domestic, retail, hospitality, hotel or club development is the first step towards setting the atmosphere of that particular space, the impression people receive when they enter and look around. Standard solutions usually include smooth walls for living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms and tiles for kitchens and bathrooms. They are practical but often impersonal. Opting for an internal decorative finish is the best way to customise a space through the use of ad hoc colours, unique shades and refined details.
Ideal Work designed its interior application systems with the aim of meeting any possible need. Our professionals will advise the most suitable decorative surface for your project by incorporating your personal style and preferences.
Let us now see Ideal Work solutions’ main features.
Ideal Work internal decorative solutions
The style of a decorative surface can completely revolutionise the atmosphere of a space. A traditional, rough textured surface will provide a warm, welcoming appearance, whereas a uniform, smooth and neutral coloured finish will give the space a modern and cutting-edge look.
Ideal Work features internal surface systems designed to meet all needs.
We will start by exploring Ideal Work’s most traditional systems.
Stamped Wall
This internal decorative treatment recreates the appearance of materials such as brick, stone, ceramic etc… Stamped Wall is versatile and durable but also beautiful and sophisticated.
Through rubber moulds and the appropriate preparation and application techniques, a natural refined outcome will be created by Ideal Work expert artisans. The end result can then be customised and decorated with colours, textures and other decorative elements and inserts including rosettes and geometric shapes.
Stamped Wall is the perfect solution for a dignified, well-finished space.
Artificial Rocks
With a thickness of just 6-7 centimetres, an Artificial Rock decorative surface provides solidity and durability along with a wide range of custom possibilities.
It can be applied onto different kinds of surfaces (walls, columns, fireplaces, arches etc) to give them the appearance of a real rock wall.
The desired texture is obtained through specific moulds and tools, creating a faithful reproduction of rock not only from a visual but also a tactile perspective.
The result is a decorative surface reminiscent of a natural environment.
Lixio®
Ideal Work Lixio® is an internal decorative surface inspired by the Venetian terrazzo floor tradition.
With a thickness of just 5-6 millimetres, a mix of cement and Italian marble aggregates allows the creation of unique combinations of colours to which it is possible to add geometric shapes, rosettes and other decorative elements.
Beautiful as much as durable and resistant to foot traffic, Lixio® is a charming blend of ancient and modern, the perfect combination for a sophisticated, elegant space.
If you prefer a decorative contemporary surface that conveys progress and modernity, the following systems may be the best options for you.
Microtopping®
If you are seeking an internal decorative surface for your walls, columns, floors, arches or other structural and furnishing elements, Microtopping® microcement is the right choice for you.
This cutting-edge material can cover any existing solid surface in just 3 millimetres thickness without the original being removed.
Through its seamless nature, the end result will be an easy-to-maintain uniform, durable and beautiful surface.
You can customise your decorative microcement solution by choosing from warm vibrant colours or cold neutral shades and ad hoc textures and finishes.
Purometallo
One of the latest Ideal Work systems, Purometallo, creates a cutting-edge appearance through its contrasting effects and textures.
It can be applied not only onto floors and walls but also countertops, balustrades, banisters, stairs and other furnishing or structural elements.
To create Purometallo’s characteristic metal effect, Ideal Work artisans use specific tools and techniques to apply a mix of resin and metal powder. The result is a shimmering effect that reflects light and gives a unique touch to any space.
Six available colours (gold, bronze, copper, iron, pewter and Corten) and a number of different texturesprovide a wide range of custom possibilities allowing you to embellish any space with Purometallo’s metallic dazzle and modern style.
Nuvolato Architop®
If you want to give your residence, retail store or venue a modern and minimalist style, Nuvolato Architop® is the solution for you.
With its thickness of just 3-4 millimetres it provides strength and refinement to existing internal and external surfaces without them being removed. After appropriate preparation treatments, Nuvolato Architop® can, in fact, be applied directly over existing surfaces to completely renovate any space.
Its characteristic cloud effect creates a dynamic visual impact from a greater to a lesser degree according to colour intensity and contrast. Its 29 available shades all ensure an elegant outcome for a truly exclusive floor.
Acid-Stain
This decorative surface can be created ad hoc based on the client’s needs, ensuring a modern design and a unique aesthetic impact.
Ideal Work Acid-Stain offers the creation of a wide range of colours from vibrant and bold to more neutral and delicate shades. The unique finish is created through a reaction between its special acids derived from metallic salt compounds and cement or lime-based surfaces. The intensity of the reaction varies according to the quantity of material used on the cementitious surface, the free lime available in that surface and the application technique.
The final outcome is a unique, colourful effect for external or internal use, on which a polished finish is available.
Through additional specific maintenance treatments, Acid-Stain’s resistance to heavy foot traffic and wear(cracking and fading) is increased.
Choose from seven available standard colours (which can be mixed and/or diluted to vastly increase the range) and start decorating your surface!
In conclusion, we do understand that identifying the most suitable internal surface for your interior is not easy.
Several factors should be considered, such as the location’s style, the practical features you require and the colours and textures that better complement the rest of the décor etc…
