The project
In Cannes, on the Côte d’Azur, the magnificent Villa Carat has gained a 140 m² Accoya deck surrounding a lap pool. The modified wood was specified by Woodstone Project for its exceptional performance: ecological, virtually rot-proof and free from deformation, while offering the warmth of natural solid timber. Around a pool, Accoya excels: extremely smooth to the touch, a splinter-free surface and boards that do not overheat in summer, perfect for bare feet. A sustainable alternative to tropical hardwoods, from certified fast-growing forests, non-toxic and 100% recyclable, it has achieved Gold level Cradle-to-Cradle certification. Rated for use class 4, it is guaranteed for at least 25 years in contact with water and soil. The deck was installed on the GRAD rail system, an Accoya partner since 2013.
