Project Summary:
  Diamastone Quartz, with its metallic qualities, created a sparkling effect on the floor of the Luna Restaurant at the Carillon Hilton Hotel in St. Petersburg, FL. The Blue Mirage was the perfect component in creating Bruce Merenda's design for this stunning contemporary restaurant with influences of 1930's Art Deco and Maxfield Parrish color palette of blues and amber. This created an interior space that is contemporary, as well as warm and inviting.

Studio B Design Concepts also incorporated both Blue and Black Mirage Diamastone in a private airport facility, Rectrix SRQ, in Sarasota, FL.
