THE FASCINATION OF ARTISTIC DECORATION

Among those elements, which most lend tone and elegance to a stylish home, is the painted and decorated door. Villas, palaces and mansion-houses still bear witness to the essential role played by the door in the evolution of furnishings - primarily its symbolic significance, announcing and introducing the house and its inner spaces.
An elegant bedroom or a prestigious hall cannot but be heralded by doors in harmony with the ensemble. Thus, if art is to be a prime factor in the intentions of the designer, it follows that the door is an unparalleled opportunity for aesthetic enrichment.

THE THREE VALUES OF FLORES DOORS

Three factors characterise Flores Doors:
* Above all, the aesthetic values which imply fidelity to the ornamental canons of the great Italian tradition. Festoons, garlands, medallions, friezes, grotesques, polichrome profiles and mouldings are the principal decorative motifs used in the decoration of our doors.
* Obviously a door cannot be merely a beautiful object, it must also be practical and robust, particularly if it is to be used in the context of hotels, or farm holiday centers. Flores have brought their long experience to bear on its problem, producing doors which offer the eye, and the touch, the delicacy and beauty of old paintings, whilst, in reality, they are both extremely resistant to wear and tear, and when required are also washable.
* Doors are not simple furnisphings, but are structural elements of the house itself. If the house is old, or is characterised by traditional materials, it is indispensable that the doors should blend perfectly with their surroundings.
* The exclusive manual procedure perfected by Flores, recreate on their doors the precise effect of antique wood and colour.
