Novowood is a composite material (WPC), 70% made of wood natural fibers and 30% made of Polyethylene. It can be used for products of different shapes and colors, still maintaining the elegance of wood and the advantages of a not completely natural material.
Uptown Gardens
The Novowood “Infinity 60” louver profile is the key element. The louvers are installed to create dynamic shapes and vertical screens that unfold on the facades of the residences. This vertical and irregular development remind the organic forms of nature.
The Copper Brown color of Novowood profiles provides an interesting contrast with the travertine of the cladding and embellishes the facades creating a perfect match.
