Facade, flooring, elevators, floors, interiors, and more. A dream realized in more than 28,000 m2 of Dekton
Located in the centre of Tel Aviv at the junction of two shopping streets, the ToHa building reaches 29 stories high. Its unique, faceted profile, inspired by the geometry of an iceberg, was designed by Ron Arad together with Avner Yashar’s local team to house an office complex that includes a public garden, viewing point and restaurant.
Innovative and functional architecture
The technical foundations are clad using a unique ventilated facade system that alternates the orientation of intersecting Dekton® panels. This application allows for the passage of air between the large-format (320 x 70cm) plates and creates a uniform frontage that gives texture and depth to the elevation. Cosentino also offers the opportunity to custom-make a personalized palette of six colours, based on the Strato model, that create a progressive colour gradation from the lower part upwards.
Interior and exterior: A balance of light and visual continuity
Inside, a huge 30-metre atrium acts as a vestibule and meeting point. The offices face outwards, through a glass facade, and inwards towards the central patio lit by a large light well.

``Dekton has proven its credentials as the perfect material for architects in achieving any project goal``
