Oriental and Italian features in the heart of the United Kingdom: Ceramiche Caesar at the Heart of the “Essence at the Pantiles” Project

These lands, so distant yet so tangible in day-to-day life, come together in a new project which celebrates the synergy between the materials and shapes of Ceramiche Caesar and the creativity of the Haigh & Company design company. A powerful mixture which is expressed in James Balston’s images.

Set in the British context, the project we would like to present to you today expresses sociability, sharing and dialogue through the coming together of copper hues and Caesar’s “Anima Futura” marble look collection. The golden white embraces the black lines, whereas the pastel shades and aqua green add further dynamism to the claddings, encompassing a one-of-a-kind Italian style.

What purpose does Architecture have, if not to ensure our cultural heritage thrives for ages to come? The “Essence at the Pantiles” Indian restaurant embodies this desire to preserve an impressive history and get the best out of it for the future.

This new building is the result of a creative process which started from a blank sheet, where architects and designers shaped a structure that would be capable of telling the story of the bond between the two cultures, intertwining their destinies in a single architectural vision.

What was our role? Our role was to bring a purely Italian style to the heart of the project, as an amalgam to bring together and highlight the prominent features of each creative design.
