Levantina Kiosk



This kiosk was created for the Cersaie fair, the ceramic materials fair most important in the world. This fair is celebrated in Bolonia, Italy. Techlam by Levantina showed an amazing kiosk. It was designed by Rocamora studio, an important studio of design and architecture of Alicante, Spain, in 2017.



The kiosk present a rectangular size, with 125m2 of surface. It has 10 m of length, 5 m of width and 2,5 m of height. Therefore, we can see the relation between measures. The width is two times the height and the length is two times the height.

On the other hand, the Levantina kiosk has organic forms in the interior. Furthermore, the interior of the kiosk is asymmetric.

In addition, it has three different access, with a semicircular walk that is directed by furniture.


The kiosk presents a reception desk where the clients can ask their question or speak with the staff for information about products o materials. Also, it has an exhibition zone with the most important products of the brand. Finally, it has a private room to keep some products, as Techlam, or personal things of the staff.

Then, the structure is made with steel and aluminium, which is hung from the ceiling. However, the kiosk does not have its own ceiling. Finally, the form of the project is made with Techlam, an innovative material of the brand, because it is a strong material and it only has 6 mm of width. Moreover, the product in the project is white; however, the company has the Techlam in many colours.


Techlam hang from the principal structure. Sheets are superimposed and they have different forms to create the corridor. In addition, we can see that this material is in the floor too, with a width of 5 to 10 cm.


The light of the kiosk is integrate with the structure. Therefore, we have a general illumination in all the space. However, we also have the illumination of the exterior space, because the form has several gaps.

In addition, we have the logo of the brand outside of the kiosk. The colours are white and black, and they combine with the general colour of the structure, that is white.

Inside the kiosk, we have a lot of colour guides about this product and other guides with all products of Levantina.


The values of the brand are:

Sustainability. Levantina value the environment. Therefore, they use products, which are not harmful for people’s health and with low levels of emission of dangerous substances.

Innovation. This is very important, so, they always improve their materials and finishes. They use the best technology to create new placement systems, maintenance systems, stain-resistant methods and anti-slip methods. In addition, they also study new applications for their materials.

Finally, the products have to be accessible for all people.



The purpose of the kiosk is to create a relationship between the client and the space, the brand and Levantina. Without limits between private space and public space. While they are showing their best product and their last innovation. Moreover, the form of the project remind a corridor, so, the client that walk into the fair can cross this kiosk to go to another zone at the same time they see the product and they know Levantina.

¿Problemas o Virtudes?

¿Son realmente tus defectos un problema? Toda mi vida me llamaron olvidadiza, desastre... Pero, ¿realmente esos aspectos de mi vida solo causan conflictos? El olvido puede crear concentración. A lo largo de un proyecto importante olvidar ciertos eventos e incluso a ciertas personas te hace olvidar distracciones y problemas de tu día a día, te permite concentrarte 100% en el trabajo y dar lo mejor de ti. Lo bueno de estos "defectos" es que recorren la vida junto a ti y todas las verdaderas personas importantes los conocen, aceptan e incluso te ayudan a superarlos poco a poco. Sí, puede ser malo, pero también pueden ser buenos si sabemos utilizarlos a nuestro favor. Con esto llegamos al segundo punto, ¿desastre? Como futura diseñadora de interiores me opongo a considerar esto como ofensivo. La creatividad se presenta de muchas maneras y en mi caso una de ellas es el desorden, porque muchas veces preocuparse por el orden te aparta de tu labo...

Introduction In the early 20th century, new Scandinavian nations emerged with entrepreneurs and politicians who wanted to create powerful, prosperous and industrialized states. There were people interested in this like intellectuals, social reformers, artists and architects. They rejected the vulgar and sumptuous Victorian interiors.

He designed in 1900 a type of independent housing called "houses on the prairie", it is influenced by Japanese principles that guide the relationship between interiors and exteriors and the symbolism of spaces open. The main feature of the Prairie Houses was the emphasis on horizontal lines, asymmetrical planes, and natural materials such as wood. He wanted to create an "organic architecture".
