Stones, tiles, signature shapes and lines: layer by layer, each material serves a purpose. One carefully created by our own curatorship of partners that understand the heritage of the place and explore our forward-thinking vision in all its dimensions. Together, we craft the uniqueness of the city narrative. A story shaped by the lifestyle of its people, one that will resonate beyond its time of creation. Form & function, fragments of interior & exterior and of tradition & innovation cohabitate under one place. Príme’s crafted places.
