This year, as part of „Marmomacc and the City”, Stone Group International will show its „Kaleidoscope“ in Verona’s City Center: In Arena space, two marble wheels, revolving in opposite directions, will create a visual Kaleidoscope pattern, symbolizing the beauty of life and its ever-changing nature.
The installation will be an event to introduce the Pirgon material range and the new Pirgon Ebru-Arabesque white marble to the market, mainly to key consumers from Italy, USA, UK, Australia and Mexico.
The name of Pirgon Ebru-Arabesque is derived from the ancient Ebru and Arabesque style in art. Both are based on rhythmic linear patters similar to marble-structures.
Creators of the „Kaleidoscope“ are Spyros Kokkinos and Michalis Theofilou from Archkt Ltd.
