Polidori.Barbera Design and Armani
The finishes' realization used in the Armani project arises by a pure chance. The two designers have known the project for the opening of the first Armani Hotel in Dubai from a magazine's article. They realize a finish decoration in many colors inspiring their selves on warm colors of volcanic isles, on fashion Armani collections and on Armani Casa design. The suggestion has immediately been approved from interior designer team of the project: the Pomice and Riversand finishes of Polidori. Barbera Design becomes in this way a standard of Armani Hotels and Residences.

Viero Pomice and Viero Riversand
The finish in two colors: Pomice and Riversand, that has been chosen, has been originated from a decorative product of Viero. It has been reformulated in a specific way in order to obtain a texture and an aspect perfectly integrated to bedrooms and apartments' style of the project.
After a first handwork step, the two products have been industrialized in order to answer to the high quality standards of Viero and then sent to Dubai for the application in the construction site. In the same time has been formed the project responsible of the company, who has ruled the selected decorators team in the products application in the 160 Hotels &resorts bedrooms and in the 144 Armani residences apartment.
