Saint-Yrieix Gneiss, an exclusive natural stone from CUPA STONE quarry in France, adds an elegantly subdued, radiant touch to the residence DY 25 Rive Gauche. Located on the Island of Nantes, with breathtaking views across the Loire, the facade of this exceptional building has been cladded in Saint-Yrieix Gneiss, a natural stone with shades of beige and grey combined with lighter tones. The architect Hervé Beaudouin chose this stone in order to emphasize the aim of the project: make people feel at home as if they live outdoors. Developed in 2007, DY 25 Rive Gauche includes 40 apartments with large balconies and private gardens.
