The Artistry of Homapal® Metal Laminates

Homapal® Metal Laminates bring emotion into interior spaces with a powerful blend of high performance and striking glamour. These décors feature lustrous colors and sensuous textures that transform walls, furniture, fixtures and displays into bold, modern design statements.

But how are these exclusive designs created? Get a glimpse into the world of the talented and imaginative experts who develop and perfect the signature metallic surfaces of the Homapal® Gestures collection.

Tucked away in the Homapal manufacturing facility in Herzberg am Harz, Germany, is a small group of highly skilled artisans some call “the Picasso Department.” This team is tasked with refining the textures, patterns and colors of each Gestures metal décor using a variety of metalworking techniques.  

This endeavor includes a skillful combination of mechanical approaches, such as sanding, polishing, and UV-coating each sheet, and hand-coloring to get just the right look and finish. Through this process, the Picasso Department transforms aluminum, copper and brass laminates into the exceptional surfaces of the Gestures collection. In fact, each Gestures décor is individually enhanced to create a sense of movement, depth and individuality.  

The Picasso Department’s metallic panels give an extraordinary appearance and memorable tactile experience to contemporary interior design and furniture. With its design-forward aesthetics, the Gestures collection offers architects and designers a beautiful, diverse surfacing toolkit for adding visual interest to upscale spaces across hospitality, office, higher education and other commercial environments.
