At 98 metres tall, the state-of-the-art Portomaso Business Tower is one of the country’s most iconic buildings. Opened in 2001, it is spread over 23 floors. Halmann Vella supplied and installed a ventilated façade in NBK Terracotta cladding. In 2018, an extension to the tower is being finalised. Halmann Vella has also supplied and installed NBK Architectural Terracotta for this project. The project also includes the NBK TERRART Baguette System, ceramic pipes with square, circular or oblong cross-sections which can also be made as curved elements or as double baguettes. This flexible product is mainly used to cover window areas …

A neutral, clean kitchen featuring an elegant Taj Majal quartzite kitchen top leads the way towards a neutral travertine Saturno bathroom. The striking Rainforest Brown marble feature wall comes almost a surprise…..albeit a pleasant one. We love the stylistic innovation of this Valletta apartment designed by AM Design.
The E-Pantar building project has been a very exciting project for us. Nothing beats shaping a building from scratch, with all the possibilities to create something so beautiful. Layout flexibility was one of our top priorities when designing this building, hence the use of raised flooring in most operational areas. Once the layout was finalised, it was time to embellish the space, choosing a mix of beautiful natural stone such as Carrara marble and travertine as well as ceramic for the interior and white and black precast terrazzo panels for the façade….to form a beautiful whole.
There’s something very elegant and opulent about marble. It is no surprise that it was selected as the main focal point at Hamett’s Macina Restaurant, a restaurant housed in a historical building, manned by 19 time-award winning restaurateur Chris Hammett. The marble was combined with rich blues for a modern, lounge style final result. During this project, Halmann Vella installed a 3 metre marble bar top in Calacatta Fusion as well as a number of dining tables in Calacatta Fusion and Grey Stone.

Built almost half a millennium ago by the Knights of St. John, the Macina has been a local landmark for centuries. Nowadays it is home to the Cugo Gran Macina Grand Harbour Boutique Hotel. In order to compliment the rich details of the building, the designers opted for a raw palette of natural materials such as Arabescato and Carrara Marble, slate and lava stone, giving the hotel an air of understated, luxury, where the past and the present are seamlessly intertwined.
