Wooden panels as a second skin - Lignotrend

High school kirschgarten

Wooden panels as a second skin

The new canteen Kirschgarten had to be completely reversible – because it borders on a listed building. The architects therefore used the structures of a recreation hall and laid white-grey painted wooden panels over the exposed concrete supporting structure. Like a second skin, they stretch across the floor, walls and ceiling, creating an impressive “room-in-a-room” that opens up to the schoolyard via a filigree glass facade.

Wood type

Various wood species are available for the visible layer. For quality reasons, individual wood species cannot be configured for all profiles; for technical reasons, surface treatments are excluded for some wood species.
Wood type
_WTS Silver fir knotless, plain
Profile

The visible layer is profiled with joints. The code for profiling indicates in millimetres: Element width, strip width (rounded, from/to if applicable) and joint width (rounded) as well as a letter identification for variants, e.g. with chamfered strip edges or with additional height gradation.

Note: Some profiles indirectly cause exclusions for other configuration options.
Profile
_625-12-4 Slat profile
Structure

The face is subjected to a brushing _gb as standard, which produces a stronger or weaker structure depending on the type of wood and makes the surface less sensitive to scratches. Alternatively, a smooth sanding _gs can be carried out, or on request a bandsaw cut _grimitated.
Structure
_gb Brushed
Behandlung

Depending on the type of wood, the optional application of a surface treatment is possible ex works. Individual colour finishes are always sampled for coordination. For elements in individual lengths, colour treatment is limited to max. 5 m length.
Treatment
_bl-t Lacquer transparent
Room acoustics

If the soffit of the element is to have a good sound-absorbing effect, the penultimate layer is configured as absorber _a50g. Otherwise, this layer is configured as a solid wood layer _a0.
Room acoustics
_a70g 70 % Absorber
