A global leader known for producing and distributing high value innovative surfaces for designers and architects and for pioneering the leading surface brand Silestone , Cosentino has announced the members of its Silestone Trendspotters program. The program, now in its fourth year, was launched in 2012 at the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Chicago and grew to become a platform for influential designers to present emerging trends and insights in the industry and an outlet for collaboration between the designers and the brand.
