�echni �ues � �echnolo�� Impressions is based on Senso’s advanced Freeze™ technology. Freeze™ represents the ultimate goal in resins: crystal clear polymers. Traditional transparent resins use adhesives, binders and fillers that all leave coloured traces resulting in a yellowish look. For Freeze™ Senso has found alternatives reaching a clarity avarage of 99.3%; an amazing achievement. To allow larger floor areas new techniques have been invented that take away the traditional barriers
of size and layout. For the extraordinary application skills required special training programmes have been set up. For Impressions, Studio Marcel Wanders has added a whole new dimension: optical illusion. Marcel Wanders has added the magnificance of a trompe d’oeil, creating three dimensions in a twodimensional floor. Intricately detailed, Impessions is the ultimate combination of quality, craftsmanship and design. �
Speci�cation � Senso Impressions means ultimate smoothness, perfect seamlessness and warm ambiance. It is soft to walk on and perfect in combination with floor heating. �
