Office building combines timber construction and Webnet
Initial situation and concept
The new office building for ERNE AG Holzbau in Stein consistently translates corporate growth into architecture and construction. An innovative hybrid construction method combines timber with other materials. The result is a flexible office ensemble with a central atrium as the spatial and functional centerpiece.
Central staircases, connecting bridges and the surrounding railings organize the vertical and horizontal movement in the atrium and create clear visual and relationship axes across three floors. The railings made of wooden frames, filled with Webnet stainless steel mesh, combine material-saving construction and industrial precision. The atrium functions as a light-flooded distribution space and connects the "marketplace" on the first floor with the office floors to create a continuous spatial continuum.
Consulting and implementation
Technical sales advice on the integration of the Frames Inviss-C solution into the wooden railings. The Frames profiles are pre-assembled with Webnet stainless steel mesh ex works and could therefore be integrated into the wooden railings with a perfect fit.
