SIBAYA CASINO, SOUTH AFRICA

Zulu architecture enhanced
The Sibaya Casino is one of the international resorts that have turned Durban into a top congress destination. The Casino covers 48 hectares of coastal mainland and offers a 360° view of the hinterland.

Traditional Zulu architecture is blended with state-of-the-art technologies with the aim of exalting luxury, elegance, hospitality and fun. The cultural village is the result of a joint venture between the Biyela clan, which belongs to a branch of the Zulu royal family, Afrisun KZN and Barry Leitch, a renowned cultural consultant.

 

Local tradition and innovative technologies
The Sibaya Casino is designed around the local Zulu culture. Its massive central domed structure is encircled by eight satellite structures, each having its own identity. The unique facade features create harmonious curved structures with hardly any straight line. When the buyer decided to use curved walls, which the construction company had never constructed before, a full-size sample was developed to show the effectiveness of this technique.



Prestige Traditional

 

Tegola Canadese makes every project easy
The domes are covered with Prestige Traditional by Tegola Canadese. Curved structures are by no means a problem for Prestige Traditional, Tegola Canadese’s copper tiles. Prestige Traditional tiles are perfect for roofs of any shape. Thanks to their extreme flexibility they are suitable for a wide range of applications.

 

An exclusive production technology
Tegola Canadese gives new value to an ancient and prestigious roofing material like copper, adding to the roof a particularly refined look. The use of copper dates back to 2,500 B.C., when owning this material was synonymous with wealth. Back then architects had already discovered that copper was an extraordinary roofing material that guaranteed safety, long life and resistance.
