Lapitec is an Italian company committed to integrating luxury and sustainability into its products since 1989. Lapitec sintered stone in Bianco Crema was used in the ventilated facades of Ca’ Gioia Villa located in Veneto, Italy.
The Villa entrance is marked by a long glass covering that frames one of Andrea Palladio's 16th-century works located at the foot of the Veneto Prealps. Designed by Francesco Pascali, this new residence designed interprets the Palladian principles as an L-shaped building. Monumentality and simplicity are balanced in a continuous rhythm in the project, which can be seen throughout the long lower building with a pitched roof and the two-floored main building.
The result from the disposition of the interior spaces is a set of meticulous geometric facades that are completely covered by Lapitec's large format sintered stones in Bianco Crema finish. The stone slabs measuring 1540 x 3440 mm provide a unique pattern to the vertical surfaces. Additionally, given the UV resistance of Lapitec's sintered stone, the appearance of the Villa's facade will remain unaffected by temperature fluctuations and all sorts of weather conditions that affect this region of northeast Italy. Bianco Crema is available in 6 finishes, Lux, Satin, Velluto, Lithos, Vesuvio, and Arena.
