Marina Panels: The concentration refuge by esPattio

Designed with an artistic soul and meticulous execution, Marina Panels shapes spaces with presence, technology, and comfort, offering high-end projects a comprehensive solution in terms of flexibility, finishes, and visual appeal.

esPattio presents Marina Panels, an evolution of our renowned Marina series, designed by Patrick Norguet, which expands its possibilities with a new system of armchairs and sofas with panels. Conceived to define and articulate spaces for meeting, work, or relaxation, Marina Panels combines the classic metal structure of the original series with upholstered surfaces that envelop the user, offering a perfect balance between aesthetics, functionality, and acoustic comfort. Its design, characterized by soft lines and harmonious proportions, maintains the essence of the original concept while introducing greater versatility in the configuration of all kinds of projects.

In offices, hospitality areas, and contract environments, Marina Panels creates micro-scenarios of interaction —places where time stretches and presence is effortlessly felt. The metal structure, customizable in the full color range of esPattio, blends with the warmth of wood and the nobility of fabrics to create pieces that are both useful and poetic. These qualities make Marina Panels an ideal solution for projects seeking to stand out through design and comfort.

Design and art by Patrick Norguet

The design of Marina Panels breathes the sensitivity of Patrick Norguet: a warm sobriety, lines that respect the human scale, and an expression that privileges calm. Patrick Norguet understands furniture as an intimate architecture; here, forms fold to protect without isolating, to cradle the gaze and facilitate conversation. The result is a timeless aesthetic that harmonizes equally with minimalist interiors and more textured atmospheres.

The metal structure, treated as a chromatic signature, outlines each configuration and allows the object to adapt to the project: from open compositions to pieces that define more secluded corners. The fabrics embrace the user experience, creating a balance between firmness and softness, ideal for spaces that prioritize comfort. A design that does not impose; it accompanies.

Marina Panels is a work of design meant to be lived. Its visual strength lies in the details —the proportion of curves, the relationship between void and volume, the rhythm with which light falls on the surface— turning every encounter into an aesthetic and human experience. It is, in sum, a piece that elevates the presence of a room and modulates it according to the people who inhabit it.

In which kind of projects would Marina Panels fit in?

Marina Panels is an ideal series for all types of spaces that embrace contemporary work concepts. In this context, defining operational and meeting areas without leaving the same room has become a priority, and it is here that this collection reveals its full potential. Its design allows for the articulation of diverse areas without losing aesthetic cohesion, creating environments that are more human, flexible, and efficient.

It is perfect for informal meeting areas, group workspaces, or shared concentration zones. In these settings, the facing armchairs and sofas create scenes of collaboration and retreat that facilitate both spontaneous dialogue and focused work. The integrated electrification turns every corner into a productive island, ready to support devices, nurture ideas, and extend sessions without interruption.

In hospitality environments —hotels, lobbies, VIP zones—, Marina Panels acts as a narrative element: it defines waiting areas that are no longer mere transitions, but meaningful pauses. Its presence softens public space, fosters conversation, and adds a distinctive aesthetic that reflects the project’s character. The optional TV support and central table expand its possibilities —from intimate presentations to informal meetings with multimedia projection.

Also in contract projects, Marina Panels stands out for its flexibility. Its multiple configurations allow for the organization of diverse spatial itineraries: from the intimate to the shared, from the quiet to the conversational. The optional coat hooks —small suspended sculptures— complete the scene with a functional and contemplative gesture, useful for hanging a garment while enriching the visual composition.

Details of comfort and technology

Marina Panels can integrate electrification within its core: discreet charging points and connections that enable contemporary work without sacrificing aesthetics. This integrated electrification transforms the facing armchairs and sofas into places of productivity and connection, where technology blends with comfort. The option to include a TV support multiplies its use in hospitality areas and corporate spaces, enhancing its functionality without compromising the purity of the design.

The palette and finishes reflect the esPattio philosophy: a metal structure customizable in our wide chromatic range, capable of reinforcing the identity of the space or brand. Colors and fabrics are designed to interact with light and surroundings, enhancing the sense of well-being. The optional central table acts as a focal point, giving shape to meetings and facilitating the natural exchange between people and ideas.

The optional coat hooks, light and elegant, are a detail that unites functionality and beauty: small suspended sculptures that invite everyday interaction with the object. Altogether, Marina Panels brings together technology, noble materials, and formal language, prioritizing the human experience — protection without enclosure, comfort without excess, and a design that accompanies the life of spaces.

We invite you to embrace calm.

Marina Panels is designed to enhance the elegance and presence of your projects. A series that does not impose, but welcomes; that does not compete with the space, but frames it. A continuation of Patrick Norguet’s masterpiece for esPattio, understanding the user experience as a choreography of silences, words, and gestures, where each panel carries the intention of turning a meeting into a memorable moment.

If your project aims to give its spaces a warm, functional, and distinctive presence, Marina Panels offers a comprehensive solution: design, modularity, electrification, and an aesthetic capable of humanizing any room. It is a proposal for those who believe that good design is, above all, hospitality.
