Quality-oriented surfaces for interiors.
CreativeARQ is a designer and manufacturer of surfacing solutions for application on walls, furniture and more!
What's CreativeARQ?
We design and manufacture wood, metal, ceramic and recycled material surfaces.
Our focus is on delivering high-quality and client-centered designs that make projects stand-out.
Tailored for architects and designers.
Materials and techniques are what makes us different.
We work with multiple technologies such as digital printing, laser cutting and CNC machining so that we’re able to create unusual textures in a variety of materials that ranges from natural wood and ceramics to steel and even recycled materials!
Our collections
Our factory is located in Braga, Portugal. However, we have a lot of distributors around the world. You can see the full list here.
We decorate walls in a different, stand-out way. Our goal is to create interesting surfaces that differentiate projects and create new trends. To do just that, we use materials that no one else uses, which allows us to create things no one else has seen.
Yes! Although we have standard sizes for most products, we create custom sizes for different projects so that the final customer can apply the panels without professional help. Even if you don’t feel comfortable doing it yourself, application is quick and easy.
Yes! Most of our business is outside of Portugal. You can see our agents here or, if your country does not have a distributor, you can contact us directly.
We usually take 30 days for production. If there’s an unusual affluence of orders, this time might expand. We’ll always give you a heads up if things are getting busy.
Yes. We take sustainability and environmental responsability very seriously. Our production facilities are solar powered, we recycle materials and we even work with used wood (as you can see in the Old Barrel collection)
Yes! We welcome everyone that wants to learn more about what we do. Plus, we love discussing ideas, so if you have a project where you need some feedback, feel free to talk with us!
The materials
we use.
We make surfaces from, quite literally, anything:
Wood – our main material. We can carve, transform and even create new patterns from virtual designs. You can see everything we do with it here
Ceramics – inspired by the traditional portuguese ceramic industry, we interpret this material according to our vision . The result is this collection. We’re also available to design and manufacture new tiles.
Metal: whether it is corten steel for a facade or a indoor decorative panel, we can provide any solution that involves metal as a decoration. We designed some new patterns recently, which you can see here!
Recycled materials: back in 2017, we developed a new work process that allows us to recycle anything from broken glass windows to natural, aromatic wastes. We’re able to create a panel from anything you need, while retaining the aromatic characteristic for a while. You can find more information here.
Cork: we prefer to work with naturally sustainable or highly durable materials, like cork or even metal. If you’d like to work with an unusual sustainable material, we can help you figure out a solution.
The services
we provide
- CNC machining and perforation: we create custom designs on wood, MDF and other soft materials. Some examples of what we can do can be seen here. Our specialty is acoustics, an area we work with under the name PLACUSTIC.
- Laser printing and cutting: we create and manufacture metal engravings and cut-outs on metal panels. You can see some of the work we do under the brand PLAMETAL.
- Digital printing: we can do custom prints over any flat material, like wood, paper or textiles. We’re also a provider of custom wallpaper.
