Design-Led, Durable Solutions: How ABI Interiors Partners with Hospitality Designers

In hospitality projects, every design decision matters. From initial concept to project completion, designers need materials and partners they can trust.

ABI Interiors combines design versatility, longevity, and collaborative expertise to support architects and designers in creating spaces that perform as beautifully as they look.

Supporting the Design Process

From the earliest stages, ABI works alongside designers to translate ambitious concepts into practical, high-performance solutions. Its curated collections of fixtures span a broad range of textures and finishes, offering the flexibility required to shape distinctive hospitality environments.

This versatility enables tailored outcomes that reflect each brand’s identity, while clear specification support and technical guidance ensure requirements are met without compromise.

ABI’s Commercial Director, Mark Poulain says:

“At ABI Interiors, we’ve been very intentional about how we support hospitality designers, not just through product, but through partnership. Design versatility, durability, and ease of specification aren’t ‘nice to haves’ in this sector; they’re essential.

What we’re seeing more and more is a need for flexibility, whether that’s adapting finishes, developing bespoke solutions, or supporting designers through complex procurement and delivery programmes.

That’s where having a dedicated commercial team and a clear understanding of how hospitality projects actually operate makes a real difference.”

Designed for Longevity

Durability sits at the core of ABI’s sustainable design philosophy. Hospitality products endure constant use, making longevity a practical necessity in high-traffic environments. Through robust materials, refined internal engineering, and intuitive design, ABI creates solutions that withstand daily wear without compromising aesthetic intent.

Many products carry WRAS and KIWA approvals, ensuring compliance with essential standards. Alongside this, a dedicated commercial team manages logistics, provides specification advice, and streamlines delivery. This allows designers to focus on creative direction with confidence.

By prioritising durable materials, refined engineering, and advanced PVD finishes that resist scratching and corrosion, ABI creates fixtures and fittings such as taps, bathroom vanities, and door hardware designed to withstand the demands of high-use environments. Considered structural design also ensures strength and efficiency without unnecessary material use.

With warranties of up to 25 years, products are built to remain functional and visually refined for years to come, giving designers confidence that their projects will stand the test of time, both aesthetically and responsibly.

“Our focus is on making it easy to specify — clear technical information, dependable lead times, and products that perform as beautifully as they look, long after opening,” continues Mark.

“It’s encouraging to be part of a wider industry discussion that puts collaboration and longevity at the heart of design.”

Evolving With the Industry

ABI views its role as a forward-thinking partner in hospitality design. In-house R&D and manufacturing allow exploration of new finishes, technologies, and sustainable practices, while maintaining quality control and efficiency.

As the hospitality sector demands greater durability, ABI continues to deliver with fixtures that are intuitive, resilient and aligned with modern sustainability standards. For hospitality designers, the right materials and the right partner make all the difference.

ABI Interiors combines design versatility, bespoke solutions, and commercial expertise with sustainable, high-performance products, helping designers create spaces that are both inspiring and enduring.
