Cornice mouldings to cover walls. U profiles as lighting fixtures. Wall tiles as art installation.
MODERN profiles can't be pidgeon-holed.

Deco Tips
Pure shapes for endless possibilities
Welcome to the House of Personality. The Orac Decor® inspiration centre where new concepts and combinations are given shape. A place where unbridled creativity is given free rein and there are no boundaries thanks to the insight and imagination of Orio Tonini, the designer of the new profiles.
“The ornaments transform from being pure decorative elements into part of the architecture.”
Endless combinations
Orio Tonini is an architect, designer, Italian and resident of Amsterdam. He combines all his new Orac Decor® designs into a unified whole at the Orac Decor® inspiration centre but not in the way you would expect.
The various elements of the Steps range – designed as a cornice moulding – create a refined interplay of depth and lines and seamlessly continue as a pelmet.
The linear creates new opportunities for unlimited use of LED lighting and the cosiness of dimmed lights. It can be used to create a playful labyrinth of uplight, downlight and flat panel mouldings.
“The shape is pure: refined to its essence. This is precisely what enables an endless variety of applications. What you see here is only a sample of what's possible. Your imagination is the only limit.”
More than accents
“The results are better than a painting. A painting never changes, whereas a wall installation that plays with light, shadows and different angles, does. Such as the eye-catching wall where dominates the entire surface area with plenty of attention paid to detailing, grids and a playful arrangement of the various surfaces.
“The space is vibrating”, laughs Orio. “These are minor modifications that provide some nice accents and easily function as problem solvers. To hide irregularities, for example. Yes, even there you determine your own boundaries.”
