November 20, 2025Altek Italia Design Furnishes the Food Court of Ross Park Mall in Pittsburgh, PA
Altek Italia Design delivers a new contract project in the United States, contributing to the furnishing of the food court at Ross Park Mall, one of the leading shopping centers in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area.
A high-traffic environment that requires furniture solutions capable of combining durability, comfort, and aesthetic quality, while maintaining consistently high performance over time.
For this project, chairs and stools from the Baba collection were selected—one of Altek Italia Design’s most iconic lines, internationally appreciated for its versatility and its essential, timeless design language.
The Baba Collection: A Contemporary Design Classic for Contract Spaces
The Baba collection stands out for its solid and minimal structure, specifically designed for contract environments such as food courts, hospitality venues, offices, commercial spaces, and public areas.
For the Ross Park Mall project, the client opted for a custom configuration, highlighting the collection’s design flexibility and its ability to adapt seamlessly to complex, high-traffic spaces.
The seating features:
Chrome-plated steel structure, selected for its durability, wear resistance, and ease of maintenance
Seat and backrest in MAT Natural Teak, a finish that introduces a warm, natural material quality, creating visual balance within the contemporary food court setting
The result is contract furniture that integrates harmoniously into the space without overpowering it, enhancing the user experience through comfort and aesthetic coherence.


Customization and Reliability for Large Commercial Spaces
A key aspect of the project was the ability to customize finishes and materials according to the client’s specific requirements.
The combination of chrome-plated metal and teak-effect surfaces responds to both aesthetic and functional criteria, particularly important in environments subject to continuous and intensive use.
This approach confirms Altek Italia Design’s strong expertise in the international contract sector, where each project requires tailored, reliable solutions capable of integrating into complex architectural contexts.
A Tailor-Made Project for One of Pennsylvania’s Leading Shopping Centers
The intervention at the Ross Park Mall food court further strengthens Altek Italia Design’s presence in the contract furniture market, demonstrating how Italian design can effectively meet the needs of contemporary, high-traffic commercial spaces while maintaining high quality standards and meticulous attention to detail.
Through iconic collections such as Baba and a service focused on customization, Altek continues to develop contract projects worldwide.
The company’s philosophy brings together functionality, durability, and aesthetic identity, contributing to the creation of welcoming, well-designed environments through an ongoing dialogue with clients.
