Architects and designers often look for ways to enhance the appearance and practicality of a room. As such, they’re drawn to the idea of solid surfaces. At BRAC Projects, we partner with Durasein to provide a solid surface for our clients. It’s something we’re always keen to utilise, largely because of how beneficial this material is!

Below, you’ll see some of the main attributes of Durasein that demonstrate why interior designers and architects constantly fall in love with solid surfaces:

Aesthetically pleasing

Firstly, Durasein is simply lovely to look at. It replicates natural stone, which means it is aesthetically pleasing when used basically anywhere. The flat and solid surface creates a timeless look that never goes out of fashion. Plus, it’s available in a range of different colours and styles. This means it can be used in just about any setting to complement your interior design and highlight specific colour schemes. 

Solid surfaces are also used to create very sleek, clean, lines. This is a big thing for designers and architects as it brings a room together and creates more structure to the interior design. Additionally, it provides a very modern look, which is highly stylish and in demand across many commercial sectors right now. 

Versatile

A knock-on effect of the aesthetic benefits is that Durasein is so versatile. It can be used in a whole host of different places, including but not limited to:

• Vanity units
• Washroom cubicles
• Duct sets
• Countertops
• Stairs

The list goes on, and it’s all because of how versatile it is. With Durasein, you have something that isn’t just aesthetically pleasing, it’s durable and water-resistant. The pure acrylic solid surface is manufactured in a way that lets it withstand constant use without the colours fading. Furthermore, it’s very easy to clean, which is why it’s suitable in so many different places and situations. As you can imagine, it’s an architect’s dream!

Effortless maintenance

We mentioned Durasein is easy to clean, and this means there’s hardly any maintenance required. With natural stone or tiles, you have a couple of main maintenance concerns. The porous nature of natural stone means stains can become embedded in them, not to mention the chance of mould forming. The same is true of tiles, particularly because the grouting is so hard to keep clean. 

Durasein requires no grout and has no pores. It is so easy to clean and keep in an excellent condition for a very long time. As such, this further increases its durability and longevity, making it a more sustainable choice for architects and designers. It’s all well and good designing an aesthetically pleasing setting for a client, but if they can’t maintain its beauty then it will all be for nothing. 

Architects Dream

Overall, architects and designers love a solid surface like Durasein because it does so many things. It helps to create beautiful interior design settings, while at the same time carrying lots of practical benefits. Consequently, it hits the sweet spot between practicality and aesthetics, which not a lot of materials can boast!
