Forté's latest showroom and experience centre in the heart of Auckland was designed to inspire architects, designers, builders and their clients. Designed by Wonder Group, the showroom provides a space where clients can immerse themselves in the beauty of their timber products.
Prime Laminate in Burnished Black was chosen as the wall panelling and joinery throughout the main showroom space. The textural woodgrain finish compliments the handcrafted burnt Macrocarpa discussion tables that anchor the showroom floor space. The charred woodgrain of Burnished Black HPL has surprisingly warm highlights when viewed in person and provides the perfect backdrop to highlight Forté's timber flooring samples on show.
