Durat
Finnish Durat is a unique solid surface material which contains recycled post–industrial plastics and is 100% recyclable. The distinctive character of Durat is a combination of the illusion of a three–dimensional surface and its luxurious warm and silky feel. It is available in nearly 300 vibrant colours, all of which are available in 11 different textures. Durat also offers a unique service providing custom colours and textures. Durat is an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, restaurants, retail spaces, hospitals, ships and several other bespoke furniture when distinctive appearance, durability and easy maintenance are required. The versatile material offers designers almost infinite opportunities.
Finnish design brands Durat, Finarte and Johanna Gullichsen have built an imaginative world of games and recreation to touch, play and enjoy, to discover the bliss of design. ”Dont forget to Play!”, said Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. Throughout history, Finnish design has been driven by bold experimentation and testing. This open and curious way of approaching life has led to unique and practical solutions, which has been the key to the Finnish well–being resulting in the happiest country in the world. Play creates space for curiosity, mistakes, and surprises. In the PLAYROOM—from textiles to furniture—materials become a medium for artistic exploration. PLAYROOM is supported by Finnish Design Info and Helsinki Partners.
