Schmalz communication centre | haascookzemmrich STUDIO2050

[EN] - The new communication centre at Schmalz's site in Glatten forms the link between a historical old building and buildings constructed in the 1990s. The corporate spirit of this specialist for vacuum technology becomes apparent in the building's interior: a mixture of tradition, nature and high tech, which is also reflected in the materials used – concrete and glass combined with wood from the silver fir sourced in the region. Suspended Nimbus Modul R luminaires provide round, glowing highlights in the new building. Installed in a variety of diameters, the extremely slim luminaires provide efficient, wide-area general lighting thanks to their unique light characteristic with edge illumination. Together with the wood of the silver fir, which incidentally comes from the forest belonging to the executive partners Dr. Kurt Schmalz and Wolfgang Schmalz, they introduce a pleasing break to the otherwise clear-cut lines and lend the rooms a friendly atmosphere.

[DE] - Der Neubau des Kommunikationszentrums der Firma Schmalz ist das Bindeglied zwischen einem historischen Altbau und Gebäuden aus den 90er Jahren. Im Inneren wird der Unternehmensgeist spürbar: Die Mischung aus Tradition, Natur und Hightech zeigt sich in den Materialien und in der Ausstattung. Abgependelte Nimbus Modul R-Leuchten setzen leuchtende Akzente an den Decken. In verschiedenen Durchmessern sorgen sie für eine effiziente und flächige Allgemeinbeleuchtung und verleihen den Räumen eine freundliche Atmosphäre.
