Nike’s Cairo stores clad in Agglotech terrazzo
Over the years, Agglotech has been entrusted with retail projects throughout the world. Exclusive fashion houses and other world-renowned brands have chosen Agglotech’s Italian terrazzo for the flooring and wall cladding of their boutique stores. Two of the company’s latest conquests include the Nike flagship store at the Mall of Egypt and the Nike store at Cairo Festival City.
In collaboration with our Egyptian partner KO Marble, Agglotech provided our SB 178 Carrara White for Nike’s two Cairo stores. The project was overseen by the architectural design firm Sigma Contracting.
Following collaborations with international fashion brands like Valentino and others, like Benetton, that have helped to define casual fashion, Agglotech is proud to have now been chosen by Nike, the epitome of sportswear worldwide. Nike is synonymous with research, technology and comfort and pursues a philosophy that has much in common with that of Agglotech: constant evolution in materials that are both versatile and highly durable, but without compromising on style and personality.
The color chosen for the two Nike stores is our SB 178 Carrara White from our Unico line, a terrazzo that features a marble aggregate with medium-sized chips of precious Carrara marble from Tuscany. The elegant plays of light created by this gray and white marble aggregate against a pure-white background lends depth and dynamism to the ample surfaces of the Nike stores, with the Nike flagship store in the Mall of Egypt measuring 750 sq m (8,000 sq ft) and the Nike store at Cairo Festival City measuring 350 sq m (3,750 sq ft).
