A collaborative showroom<\/b><\/p>\n
Manager Edith d’Arifat speaks of “bringing together partners specializing in interior design under the same roof, to maximize the exchange and sharing of expertise, without any notion of competition or rivalry”. The concept, unique in Mauritius, offers customers and visitors a wealth of added value. In addition to the know-how of twenty suppliers, eight interior designers – veritable creators of ambiance – and seventeen local artists, the showroom lends itself to concrete projection, as different rooms in the home are recreated. Prospective customers receive support in their search for suppliers and materials, as well as advice, information and contacts, since The Hive marketplace is first and foremost a networking platform. In the light-filled mat\u00e9riauth\u00e8que, a space for exchanging ideas and working together, employees and customers meet to discuss samples, color charts, catalogs and business cards.<\/p>\n
And much more…<\/b><\/p>\n
Six distinct spaces, each with its own ambience and regularly redesigned by interior designers, help visitors to project themselves. There’s no need for a virtual reality headset here, you’re in real immersion, from the coatings (waxed concrete, paint, tapestries, etc.) covering the floors, walls and panels, to the lighting fixtures and pieces of furniture and decoration. As you discover the kitchen, the centerpiece of the home; the ultra-cozy living room; the bedroom, a wonderful invitation to daydream; and the bathroom, with its soft, trendy hues, the visual and tactile sensors stimulate ideas and reflections… inspired by the materials, fabrics, colors and other artisanal revelations and signatures of our partner brands.<\/p>\n
Original, made-to-measure and customizable, each piece of work by our craftsmen combines the notions of design, production, installation… “We emphasize the know-how and expertise of each service provider, the skills of each interior designer, so that the customer has everything at hand.
