Knowledge in support of inspiration A reputation for style and manufacturing expertise earned over time
From the product... Poliform presents collections every year that embody its innate attention to the retail and residential world as well as pieces by designers who define Poliform furnishings in their design, price range positioning, and certifications. The result is an impressive selection of products, such as the Grace armchair, the Concorde table, the Bristol sofa, and the Mad armchair which have won awards worldwide and are much appreciated in the contract furnishing industry.
Restaurant | Aalto, Milan
...to the project Poliform Contract design team’s skill at understanding and appreciating client needs lets it respond quickly and precisely to market demands, building custom fit-outs from scratch through joint collaboration with the designer to create special products or complex custom solutions. Its success in action is evinced in the design for the Aalto restaurant, for instance, where Poliform’s Flute model was chosen for the tables with customized inlays and brass inserts on their tops.

Jewels in its crown Adding value through special processing

hile it’s important to be able to handle large quantities, it is equally so to leave a distinctive trait, something few contract furnishing companies manage. Poliform Contract, through these great strengths, shows its ability to be a reliable product for special productions, processing that requires high level skills, knowledge of materials, and its ability to fit “a unique piece” seamlessly into the design context conceived by the architect. Like jewels, these strengths are rare and sought-after to take on the challenge of designing a distinctive hotel room, residence, or restaurant. RESIDENTIAL Casa MI | Zürich
Designed by Daluz Gonzalez Architekten, this private residence shows off Poliform’s expertise in custom creations. The kitchen, based on the interior designers’ idea, is like a glass sculpture that conceals within all its functions and transforms itself into a high-concept presence of architectural prestige. It’s a monolith whose engineering embodies the height of design and production skills.

RESTAURANT Joséphine, Hotel Lutetia | Paris
“We have designed things that are very difficult to make and have always found the right solution. The piece I am most proud of is the magnificent “Lustre” (19.5 meters long) at the Bar Joséphine, which Poliform created,” says Jean Michel Wilmotte. “It’s interesting because it reflects the space, the frescoes, and the light, as an extraordinary contemporary object dropping from the ceiling.” HOSPITALITY Mar Adentro | México
This project is the geographically furthest afield. It is by the architect Aragonés, who chose Poliform Contract as general contractor for the hotel’s 145 rooms, 65 apartments, and 25 villas. Wainscoting, flooring, doors, fixed and mobile furnishings, kitchens and bathrooms, and the entire restaurant area were all custom-designed, all made-to-measure, all with natural materials, all by Poliform Contract.

A mosaic of skills Building a quality supply chain

eing the general contractor for complex projects takes exacting, timely organization, suitable production capacity, and an impeccable sense of the project and of service. Poliform Contract has forged a supply chain of professionalism that makes up a mosaic where every piece fits in the right place at the right time. But what makes the difference is service in the full sense of the word, rendering all phases of the project into a consulting service
that is direct, authoritative, and trust-building. Service makes up the point of contact between ideas and actions, design and production, taking the project from the construction site to post-delivery. Service is the common thread uniting every step of the project management model created by Poliform Contract. Rather than relying just on personal initiatives, it is based on a “Good Design Manifesto.”

The key importance of human resources
Problem-solving and rapid responsiveness are essential skills to handle urgencies both in the design process and on site and for following up on the requests of architects, developers, and owners. Poliform Contract has its own project management process, creating a precise timeline of production steps, and organizing checks, logistics, and the construction site. All the way to delivery.
