The Onyx

A'lta has opted for a façade entirely clad in Moucharabieh facing brick and Montnoir engobe. In natural light, the engobe gives the façade a different appearance depending on the time of day and the weather. The moucharabieh bricks in the façade extension allow light to pass through elegantly, while preserving the residents' private parking lot.
