Attention to the environment and the landscape, the designer’s choices combining elegance, comfort and sustainability. Efficiency is guaranteed by an irrigation system, a Cavallino geothermal power system.
Novowood participated in the project with the production of Elite composite wood decking with a premium finish. For the specific project, it was also realized a new sunshading profile, used in the apartment terraces, integrated with prefabricated panels in the workshop.
