Residential Dry Below Deck
Situated overlooking an Alpharetta, Georgia Lake in an upscale neighborhood, plans for this beautiful residence included a new dry-below deck and pool addition.
The lower deck had not been used to its potential. Once the new pool was installed, that lower deck would become a much-desired poolside entertainment area. In their search for a waterproof solution, they found the perfect product to enhance the upper deck and keep the lower deck dry – Duradek.
Duradek Ultra Heritage Agate was installed as an attractive dual solution. The walkable waterproof membrane created a covered poolside patio below and a low maintenance sundeck above, perfect for entertaining on both levels. In addition, the homeowners wanted a new, maintenance... More

Anaha Residential Tower Landscape
Anaha — “reflection of light” in the Hawaiian language — was designed to capture and reflect the light of the Pacific Ocean as well as the dramatic and ever-changing sky in Honolulu. Set within the Ward Village development, this multi-family residential project is informed by native Hawaiian plants and traditions, paying homage to the natural beauty and history of Honolulu.
Anaha is oriented with its long axis perpendicular to the shoreline to preserve sight lines from mauka (mountains in Hawaiian) to makai (sea). At the ground floor, subtle differences in stone finish — from bush-hammered to honed Cremino stone paving — reveal a wave pattern. This paving is mirrored and repeated across the multiple leve...

MAUI POOL EDGE
In contrast to the skimmer system, the trend towards overflowing pools as a spa/wellness imitation has gained momentum in recent years. In these pools the water overflows the edge and generates the effect of a continuous floor and pool, without cuts, a complete integration.
This style has always been more common in hotel and wellness centre projects but a few years ago it started to become fashionable in private homes, why not have the luxury of a hotel in your own home?
The swimming pool and its surroundings should be a space where safety and comfort are paramount. The surrounding floor must be non-slip and walkable barefoot or with wet feet, so both our pool coping edging and our ceramic drainage gratings have non-slip properties, which... More

Its versatility and easy attachment make it perfect for any pool, whether it is a new construction or a refurbishment, while its anti-slip characteristic makes it safe for the whole family, preventing possible slips.

STROMBOLI COLLECTION
The modern and smooth design of this stone is perfect for terraces with straight and architectural lines. The neutral tones and the soft texture of a natural stone make the Stromboli series very versatile and adaptable to all environments. It achieves a calm and luminous atmosphere, perfect for creating a space in which to disconnect.
The Stromboli collection is available in a wide variety of formats including the 60x120cm format in normal tile and 20 MM tile, very popular nowadays as its resistance is much greater and allows it to be laid outdoors, for example, as a pathway on terraces with grass.
It is available for indoors and outdoors, with Cerámica Mayor's characteristic anti-slip, with which the project will be completely ver... More
