Sichenia has provided 17,000 square meters of porcelain stoneware to cover the floors and walls of the prestigious LYS Center, located in Kinshasa, bringing the excellence of Italian-made ceramics to one of the major African metropolitan areas.
The selected ceramic material includes various products.
This is an ambitious and distinctive project, consisting of 11 floors, where Sichenia surfaces become an integral part, combining aesthetics and high technology. LYS includes a 2-story commercial gallery with shops and 3 floors of offices. The remaining 6 floors are dedicated to 18 residential apartments with an exclusive outdoor pool on the top floor.
The impressive rooftop outdoor pool has been covered with Silvis wood-effect porcelain stoneware in Mahogany 20×120 cm, totaling 500 square meters.
To cover the nearly 10,000 square meters of apartments and offices, the goal was to approach the beauty of marble, opting for Calacatta (in 60×120 and 15×15 cm).
In the gallery shops, 4,000 square meters of Cedar Stone in 60×120 cm were used for the floors, and for the walls, 1,000 square meters of Marfil in 30×60 cm were paired with 1,000 square meters of Travertino Silver in 30×60 cm.
Finally, the remaining 500 square meters of outdoor flooring were covered with Block in the color Grey in 90×90 cm. Thanks to its 2 cm thickness and special grip finish, the collection offers exceptional durability and resistance for outdoor spaces, both public and private.
