Royal Monceau Hotel

Philippe Starck chose Vitrics engraving for the room numbers in the newly renovated luxury hotel the Royal Monceau Hotel in Paris.

Each room number is engraved inside a 45mm thick piece of optical glass and backlit.

This is incorporated into the secure entrance system for the bedrooms.

The map of the world is engraved in 3D inside this screen measuring 3200 x 1400 x 10mm.

The screen is edge lit with LEDs and incorporated into metal profiles both provided by us.

Tower 42

Tower 42 is the City of London’s tallest building. When redesigning their signage Signbox chose Vitrics glass. Each plaque is different, and combines the logo and floor number engraved in 3 dimensions within the glass. The plaques measure 1000 x 450mm and are illuminated with special lit stainless steel spacers incorporating LED lighting which reflect off the internal engraving to great effect.

Navteq

International digital map data company, Navtec has specified 3D engraved Vitrics glass as the format for a series of reseller branding plaques, designed to increase its point of sale brand presence across Europe.

To be displayed in the outlets of key automotive retailers which sell products that incorporate Navtec technology, such as in-car satellite navigation systems, the wall mounted and desk top plaques will be used to project the high-tec Navtec brand at every possible point of sale.

The wall mounted plaques will display the engraved Navtec brand in colourless glass, suspended 2 cm’s above a dark blue plaque which will sit flush with the wall. The desk-top version of the plaque, designed for sales counters, will be crafted from the same colourless glass, and held in a small aluminium stand, incorporating a series of LED lights which project through the plaque.
