THE WOODBUILDING _CH_S_02 PROJECT - SOUTHERN SWITZERLAND

 

A MODERN RESIDENTIAL, FREESTANDING DUAL OCCUPANCY DEVELOPMENT - FEATURING LATEST TECHNOLOGICAL AND ECOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS - A SUSTAINABLE , HOLISTIC AND ENERGY EFFICIENT DESIGN APPROACH

 

SWISS WOOD - Solid wood panels / cross laminated timber construction, wood flooring and our LAIN CHARVUN | charred wood exterior cladding - sustainable and carbon negative - the amount of wood used in this construction stores approximately 55 tons of CO2 - actively contributing to reduce CO2 levels

 

 

 

CONSTRUCTION

 

SOLID SWISS WOOD - cross laminated timber panels from Swiss FSC certified cultivation

-  ventilated facade / exterior cladding - our signature LAIN CHARVUN - for this project made from FSC certified ACCOYA© wood - ACCOYA© wood is CO2 neutral throughout its whole life cycle, one of the most durable and sustainable timbers - ACCOYA© is CRADLE TO CRADLE GOLD CERTIFIED

-  all interior walls and ceilings are solid wood, ground floor oiled concrete, upper floor solid wood

-  highly efficient reversible air-water heat pump with cooling function

-  floor heating system ECO-COMPACT

-  latest sun shading system integrated within the glazing units

-  energy efficient triple glazing

-  decentralized energy-efficient smart ventilation system, enthalpy exchanger ensures excellent heat and humidity recovery, membranes prevent odors from being transferred, optional allergy air filters

-  LED lighting system recessed in walls / ceiling

 

 

 

FINISHINGS

 

-  interior wood surfaces are finished with natural, plant based oils, optional added pigmentation

-  the concrete flooring is finished with dark / charcoal pigments and natural, plant based oils

-  the surface of our LAIN CHARVUN exterior cladding has been cooled with water after the firing process and has been left in its original state without further treatment - a process that has been proven functional and beautiful for centuries. It will weather a bit over time, however will most likely not require any further treatment, until the next generation might move in

-  natural stone surfaces and solid wood for all bathrooms and kitchens - brushed, black / grey marble and/ or split slate. The large brushed or split stone slabs are finished with plant based oils to preserve their sensuous and tactile surfaces.
