Portobello, a leader in ceramic tile retail in Brazil, reinforces its innovative DNA at the 23rd edition of Expo Revestir with the launch of the Bossa On the Road collection, Feels like Home, and other exciting new products.
Reflecting the concept of CASACOR Minas 2024, the project stems from respect and preservation of the existing traits, pigments, and layers in the property. On this solid base, essential elements for the bar's operation were added. Functionally, an inviting and comfortable environment was created.
