Aesthetics meet precision

Exposed concrete floors and design terrazzo surfaces, once known primarily from industrial applications, have now evolved into sought-after design elements. With MC’s flooring systems, you can create such surfaces with the highest precision – technically sophisticated, creatively flexible and long-lasting.

Design floors for demanding architecture

13 Jan 2026

In contemporary architecture, the floor is far more than a functional element, it plays a crucial role in shaping the perception of a space. Whether in hotels, offices or public areas, seamless mineral surfaces are trending. They create a spacious, calm and high-quality impression, combining technical performance with minimalist elegance. Exposed concrete floors and design terrazzo surfaces, once known primarily from industrial applications, have now evolved into sought-after design elements. With MC’s flooring systems, you can create such surfaces with the highest precision – technically sophisticated, creatively flexible and long-lasting.

Two current projects in Budapest, the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel and the Krausz Palota building, impressively demonstrate how aesthetics and functionality form an ideal combination through MC’s flooring systems.

 

Exclusivity on the Danube – Four Points by Sheraton

In Budapest’s Újlipótváros district, the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel has been created as an ensemble that combines modern living, working and unique experiences. In the hotel area, a 350 m² seamless MC design terrazzo floor provides the desired design. The special feature: 1,300 linear metres of precisely embedded copper profiles structure the surface and give the floor an exclusive, artisan, precision-crafted touch.

 

The challenges were significant: first, uneven substrates, existing cracks and varying screed qualities had to be evened out before a technically advanced floor system could be applied. The team of MC-Hungary developed a multi-step solution: from priming with MC-DUR 1320 VK and installing a mixture of MC-DUR 1322 with white and grey aggregates (0.5 to 5 mm), followed by several days of grinding, all the way to final sealing with MC-DUR 2095 M.

 

The result convinces in every respect: a smooth, highly durable surface that emphasises the architectural concept and enhances the hotel’s elegant atmosphere. The precise lines of the copper profiles blend harmoniously into the interior design.

 

Krausz Palota – historical elegance reinterpreted

The versatility of MC’s flooring systems is also showcased by the Krausz Palota project on the famous Andrássy Avenue in Budapest. The palace, built in 1885, was comprehensively renovated by BORD Építész Stúdió, converted into a modern office building, and refurbished and certified in accordance with international BREEAM standards.

 

In the impressive reception area, the choice fell on a blue MC terrazzo floor with an integrated logo, an intricate inlay that required exceptional craftsmanship. Here as well, the basis was an MC terrazzo flooring system known for its excellent mechanical strength, colour stability and chemical resistance. The result: a homogeneous, brilliant surface that unites historical architecture with modern aesthetics. A real eye-catcher: high-quality, elegant, robust and easy to maintain.

 

Maximum freedom in design and execution

Whether boutique hotel or listed office building, MC’s flooring systems offer planners and architects maximum freedom in design and execution. Thanks to precise workmanship, long-lasting material quality and a wide variety of colours and textures, floors are created that set standards both technically and aesthetically while meeting international sustainability requirements.

 

Both Budapest projects show that when aesthetics meet precision, floors emerge that give spaces a unique character; inspiring examples of modern architectural design.
