Dekton® Surfaces: Waterfall Project by Cosentino

The Waterfall project, a 22-meter urban masterpiece crafted entirely from Dekton®, stands as a testament to the collaboration between Cosentino and Waterforms International. This awe-inspiring creation, inspired by the verdant landscapes of Indonesia, graces the main façade of a luxurious residential building, inviting visitors into an urban oasis adorned with over 5,000 tropical plants. Such grandeur exemplifies the harmonious fusion of design prowess and technical ingenuity.

Material Innovation: From Granite to Dekton

Initially conceived in granite, the Waterfall project encountered significant technical challenges during the transition from concept to reality. The weight and high maintenance costs of granite, coupled with visible joints in the connected pieces, led the Waterforms International team to seek a superior alternative. Enter Dekton, the ultra-compact surface material that revolutionized the project with its larger slab sizes, minimal joints, lightweight nature, maintenance-free properties, waterproofing, and precisely the desired texture.

Versatility Unleashed: Limitless Design Possibilities

For architects and designers navigating complex projects, Dekton by Cosentino emerges as a versatile solution par excellence. From demanding urban environments prioritizing low maintenance to high-traffic buildings requiring resilience and adaptability, Dekton delivers on every front. Beyond its visual allure, the Waterfall project represents a sustainable stride in Australia’s urban planning landscape. Its sustainable manufacturing and energy-efficient features contribute significantly to the ethos of beauty without compromising on eco-friendliness.

Application and Construction Usage

  • Project Type: Exterior / Outdoor

In conclusion, the Waterfall project epitomizes the transformative power of Dekton surfaces, showcasing not just a stunning visual spectacle but also a symbol of sustainable progress and technical excellence in modern construction.
