Nemocnice Motol

The internal walls of this metro station are clad in multifunctional as well as beautiful Levantina porcelain material. In Prague, Techlam® Hydra Beige clads the Nemocnice Motol with its soft colour and a subtle texture that provides clarity and transmits amplitude, cleanliness and calm. The material succeeds in creating a welcoming atmosphere in the impersonal and chaotic space of a metro station.
Added to these qualities are its resistance to intense foot traffic and acts of vandalism. The technical characteristics of Techlam® Hydra Beige make of this porcelain material a staunch ally of other contemporary building materials thanks to the lightness and luminosity it gives the surfaces. Glass –very much present in Motol—is one of them and the station’s great transparent vaults are the best example: the light floods the platform through them, connecting interior with exterior. Passengers can see the sky from their seats. In this new public space concept, Levantina synthesises utilitarian and aesthetic aspects under an innovative architectural philosophy that is much warmer and friendlier.
