Walker Zanger, a natural stone and tile design resource, has been selected as the 2019 Architizer A+ Awards Popular Choice Winner in the Finishes – Hard Surfacing category for its Magna Recycled Glass Slab collection. Award winners were determined by the voting public after a 10-day online campaign, with entries from more than 100 countries and a total of more than 400,000 votes choosing the best of architectural products and projects worldwide.
“We are delighted to be named an Architizer A+ Popular Choice winner,” said Erika Egede-Nissen, director of marketing at Walker Zanger. “The awards foster the acknowledgment of the world’s most important architecture and design, and we’re honored to be recognized among such an acclaimed group of manufacturers.”
The Magna Recycled Glass Slab material is made of 100-percent recycled industrial glass and glass bottles with translucent optics that give a crystal-like brilliance under light. The material processing of Magna is similar to that of marble and granite yet protects natural resources while minimizing energy during production. The collection is an environmentally friendly alternative that offers wide-ranging applications in interior architecture.
In the pursuit of new materials, styles, innovations and specialty products, Walker Zanger has traversed the world to find original and thought-provoking tile, stone and surface materials that open the door to compelling new design possibilities.
The Architizer A+ Awards Popular Choice winners are featured on Architizer.com, the world’s largest online community of architects with an audience of more than 7 million.
