Following the success of Marvel Travertine, Atlas Concorde has partnered once again partnered with HBA to introduce Marvel T – a new travertine-effect surface collection that redefines an iconic Italian stone through 3D structures, sculptural finishes and a contemporary design language tailored for high-end hospitality environments…
Atlas Concorde has unveiled Marvel T, the brand’s latest travertine-effect collection and a bold continuation of the wider Marvel universe of surfaces. More than a faithful reproduction of natural stone, Marvel T presents a refined reinterpretation that explores new aesthetic nuances and material possibilities while amplifying the emotional qualities of travertine.

The launch follows the success of Marvel Travertine, Atlas Concorde’s debut collaboration with HBA – the world’s leading hospitality design firm. This second collection celebrates the heritage of Italian stone masonry through a series of signature 3D decorative structures inspired by the craftsmanship of Renaissance artisans, whose skill transformed raw stone into architectural poetry.
“Marvel T reflects the strength of our ongoing partnership with Atlas Concorde and our shared commitment to serving the global design industry,” says Kelly Williams, Managing Director of HBA Procurement & HBA Product. “By combining HBA’s hospitality and lifestyle expertise with Atlas Concorde’s reach and innovation, we are able to create collections that respond to real project needs. Following the success of Marvel Travertine, this collaboration demonstrates how thoughtful design, paired with strong brand synergy, can deliver timeless products that bring long-term value to designers and developers worldwide.”
The evolution of travertine
Marvel T redefines the ceramic representation of one of Italy’s most recognisable stones, approaching travertine as a living, expressive design language. Rather than replicating the original material, the collection reinvents it, drawing on ancient stoneworking techniques to create surfaces rich with depth, tactility and visual dimension.

Three-dimensional textures sit at the heart of the collection. Bold, sculptural and highly contemporary, they interact with light and shadow to establish a dynamic dialogue within a space — reinforcing travertine’s natural character while offering a modern architectural presence. Thanks to HBA’s specialist research into the material, Marvel T introduces tactile, authentic textures that extend the versatility of travertine for hospitality and residential design, including sophisticated total-look concepts and refined material combinations with wood, concrete or neutral surfaces.
Four essences, seven shades
The collection is presented through four distinct interpretations of travertine, available in seven colour variations:
-
Travertino Navona features a delicate, refined pattern available in two warm shades (White and Sand) for bright, serene interiors rooted in wellbeing.
-
Halo, inspired by rare Bianco Sibillino stone, offers a pale surface with diagonal cream veining — a pure, luminous interpretation available in White and Sand.
-
Romano Travertine, a classic striped configuration with vertical striations and visible pores, is offered in natural Sand or a contemporary Silver, expanding pairing and design options.
-
Stone Veil (Silk Georgette) brings soft, textile-inspired grey and beige veining for elegant spaces designed to promote relaxation.
Materiality in 3D
Pursuing a deeper exploration of travertine’s material identity, Atlas Concorde and HBA developed a series of 3D surfaces rooted in classical stone monumentality. Early prototypes used plaster moulds to study light, scale and perception, ultimately resulting in three new structural formats: 3D Qube, 3D MiniQube and 3D Arch.

3D Qube and 3D MiniQube share a geometric square module, with the larger format emphasising dramatic shadow plays, while the smaller format offers a refined, rhythmic effect ideal for calm environments. “The 3D Qube pattern became the purest expression of this vision,” explains Mak Hon Yue, Design Director of HBA Residential, Singapore. “It embodies depth, movement and timeless character for Atlas Concorde.”
3D Arch introduces a more fluid, organic profile reminiscent of sails, waves or softly curved stone façades. The result is a welcoming, sculptural surface expressing movement, tactility and warmth.
A cohesive ecosystem inside and out
Travertine’s inherent versatility allows Marvel T to seamlessly extend its aesthetic from interiors to outdoor spaces. Large slabs replicate the natural finishes typical of stoneworking, offering continuity of surface and enhancing sensory impact.

Marvel T sits fully within the Atlas Concorde Ecosystem, aligned with the brand’s One Space philosophy — a promise of coordinated, complementary surface solutions across all design applications. Through its continued partnership with HBA, Atlas Concorde delivers another collection that balances history with innovation, pushing the boundaries of form, texture and modern luxury.
