Stairs in Pietra Bicci

In the summer of 2022, Vastgoed Degroote (Real Estate Degroote) moved to their new headquarters in Ostend (BE). The SKY Tower One, is the second tallest tower on the Belgian coast 🌊. We are immensely proud to be part of this project. Brachot delivered Pietra Bicci travertine for the interior flooring of the offices, including the staircase. In the office interior, the carefully selected materials of veneer, natural stone and textiles are beautifully combined. The working environment immediately acquires an atmosphere of cosiness and tranquillity. Pietra Bicci is a beige compact limestone – travertine – with a "cloud-shaped" structure due to a typical pore structure. The surface contains small openings that may or may not be filled (pores are usually filled when placed with adapted grout). Fossils can be present throughout the material.
