ABOUT GRANADILLO

Granadillo is a hard tropical wood, deep red with darker streaks, with a strong presence in any space.

Its hardness makes it well suited to floors and floorboards, and its color makes it a good choice for signature pieces and countertops that call for a warm, intense tone.

For each proposal, we consider how its reddish tone relates to the light and other materials in the room, so the grain has presence without competing with the whole.
