Say hello to Brazilian Natural Stone at KBIS 2024.
We are thrilled to once again support the NKBA Global Connect program at KBIS 2024 and part of this program is an ever growing list of international pavilions. Many of you are already familiar with the German pavilion which is now one of the largest areas in North Hall, and with KBIS retaining its powerhouse position in North American residential kitchen + bath design, it comes as no surprise that other countries are now following suit. Enter the UK pavilion which you can read about HERE and brand new to KBIS, The Brazilian Natural Stone Pavilion.
Produced in collaboration with NKBA Global Alliance partner, Centrorochas, the Brazil Pavilion features a unique immersion into the perfectly imperfect world of Brazilian natural stone with the booth concept designed by NKBA Global Connect members La Agencia from Uruguay. Themed “It’s Natural”, the pavilion explores the concept of “wellness and wellbeing” through nature. Centrorochas will represent over 20 quarries at KBIS, sharing their unique stories and history. Listed below are the supporting quarries in the Brazil Pavilion at KBIS 2024. All are featured at Booth #SL6015.
