Introducing Mario Romano Walls – an exclusive line of multidimensional walls carved directly onto Staron Solid Surfaces.
Designed in Santa Monica, California, Mario Romano Walls achieves unlimited scale without any constraint. Mario Romano Walls bestow a range of homes with the multi-dimensionality of light, complexity, and texture within an intricate arrangement.
Mario Romano Walls are easily installed in wet rooms, showers, kitchens – or can flow up and around windows and turn corners. They are durable and flexible in design. Using Staron Solid Surfaces, each piece is carved and labelled, then delivered and assembled on-site without any visible seams.
Bonded together with matching adhesive, the walls are impervious to mould, virus, and bacteria. They are non-porous and offer a finish solution in one step. No painting, sanding or grout is required. Simply bond the pieces together and attach to the wall with silicone. Mario Romano Walls is a break-out in design language and innovated manufacturing using the latest in parametric computing and CNC machining technology.
Installed by local Staron fabricators, the wall system enables the beauty of complexity to be experienced, touched and even showered in. Engineered to endure, these highly durable walls are bringing a high level of design possibilities never before offered.
Mario Romano is committed to manifesting complex and beautiful geometries into the physical world. “That’s architecture, from poetry to reality,” he says. With an affinity for nature’s forms, Mario has pioneered his own design-build systems incorporating customised digital tools, CNC machining technology with hassle-free construction techniques.
Mario’s vision and expertise is pushing the envelope of built environment. With building facades that undulate like ocean waves and interior carved walls that blur into floors he is realising what he calls, “a second nature”.
“There is something authoritarian about a box-like structure. I’m driven to create a structure that is sensitive to the neighbourhood, as if it were a form you would discover in nature,” he says.
