Posted: August 2nd, 2010 | Author: koan | Filed under: private houses | Tags: natural oiled floors | No Comments »The architect Alexander Tavakoli from BauArt architects used our wooden floors for a special low-energy house in Austria. He used approx 230 square meters of our Oak Vulcano, brushed natural oiled for the corridor, bar area, lounge and for the wellness area.
Press text about the low-energy house in Vienna:
Situated in the 19th District of Vienna, in the charming environs of the Kahlenberg, the project’s basic principle of design is to harmoniously co-exist with the local area and topography. The structure is based on a straight-lined design, consisting of a four level spatial sequence that orchestrates space, light and carefully chosen materials.
Precisely positioned apertures afford inhabitants with quality views of the surrounding environment whilst simultaneously blocking unwelcome viewing, ensuring a sense of privacy within.
The feel of the surfaces played a major part in the choice of materials used. A composition reduced to wood, stone and glass enhances the appreciation of each material. Clay plastering throughout improves the acoustics, thus contributing to a relaxing atmosphere.
The construction is state of the art and is a certified “low-energy” house.
