In the contemporary world, textiles have in their innovative essence the need to find an outstanding style that is of common taste and that manages to be a trend. To achieve this and make different projects fashionable, VERDI has intertwined natural fibers with metals to create pieces such as curtains, rugs and table accessories.
The passing of the years brings with it new aesthetic demands, and to meet them, professionals from various sectors work to renew cities and the spaces that make them up. The most obvious transformations at first glance occur from architecture, which is inevitably accompanied by interior design. It is logical that an exterior renovation has an interior complement. In this way, both parts, exterior and interior, are necessary to form a true contemporary experience of design and luxury. Hotels, universities, hospitals, business buildings and private projects are the ones that have mainly renovated their structures with imposing and sometimes futuristic constructions. Builders and designers seek to partner with experts in interior design to round out their projects and achieve the aforementioned coherence.
Based on this, in recent years, important firms have looked to VERDI to develop the internal decoration of large projects, because the interior design work that VERDI has been carrying out with its exceptional and luxury crafts responds to the needs of the project, and they set a trend in Colombia and internationally.
