Project details
The Blox is defined by its glazed fronts and a glass roof that can be walked on. An expressway cuts the first floor in half. To finish the window frames and façade panels, the architects opted for a coating of IGP-DURA®xal. This powder coating is characterized by its metallic appearance, outstanding weather stability, and excellent leveling.
