Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland has four old scagliola columns in its reception area. Scagliola is a composite material imitating marble and other hard stones. The owners wanted to create a new reception desk from the same material, so Thomas spent several days with his workshop set up in the reception, trying to work out the recipe and intriguing – and entertaining – all the guests.
Homo Faber Finds is a new service aiming to inspire admirers of craft to connect and collaborate with exceptional artisans.
