The Allure of Black: LENAGAS Premier Unveiled
Yamachi Corporation, based in Sapporo, Japan, has recently launched an innovative exterior wall coating product named
LENAGAS Premier on April 14, 2025. This product is transforming not only the building materials market but also the perception of color in architecture, especially the allure of black. Unlike conventional materials, LENAGAS Premier emphasizes the idea of
'changing the exterior' of a home, allowing for an artistic expression through its three stunning shades of black.
The Three Fascinating Shades of Black
1. Sumi-iro (墨色)
This shade of black, reminiscent of traditional ink, exudes a soft harmony that adds depth to any structure. Sumi-iro carries an aesthetic charm that feels both classic and inviting, providing a gentle, luminous quality.
2. So-koku (蒼黒)
The So-koku black features a bluish tint, evoking the serene depth of midnight oceans. It offers a unique blend of sophistication and cleanliness, making it a refined choice for modern architecture.
3. Kuro Tsurubami (黒橡)
This shade draws its inspiration from nature, particularly from wooden textures and lacquerware, providing warmth through its deep, bark-like brown-black hue. Kuro Tsurubami reflects understated elegance, making it perfect for a cozy yet stylish environment.
These colors embody tones that have rarely been used in home exteriors until now. The
LENAGAS Premier opens the door for expressing architecture through color, much like fashion.
Function Meets Aesthetic Beauty
LENAGAS Premier is more than just an appealing option; it is crafted to enhance both comfort and durability suitable for Japan’s climate. This innovative coating delivers two key functionalities:
heat insulation and
self-cleaning.
1.
Heat Insulation: Protecting lives from intense summer heat, LENAGAS Premier minimizes surface temperature rises, preserving the internals of homes.
2.
Self-Cleaning: Rainwater effectively cleans the surface, allowing the coating to maintain its stunning appearance over time, significantly reducing the effort needed for maintenance.
With
LENAGAS Premier, the philosophy is clear: architecture should be freer and far more beautiful. It acts not only as a building material but also as a reflection of the residents' aesthetic values and lifestyles. The product efficiently blocks heat, repels dirt, and showcases black in stunning ways. This wall coating presents itself as a new choice, emphasizing the importance of sensitivity in home design.
