The full-service provider for exhibition stand construction and shopfitting was given an exhibition and administration building, facing towards the main road. The entrance building serves many purposes: as a portal, company logo, large shop window and lobby. It adds a diligently designed flair to the mixed-use development, conveying the company′s high-quality take on architecture. The offices are housed in a pavilion-like low building right behind it. An adjacent two-storey unit leads to the production facilities.

The first impression is determined by an approx. 30 meters long, two-storey high, space defining cedar wood frame whose urbanist symbolism points the way to the company. It spaciously houses three spatially separated areas of use: the driveway, at the same time a weatherproof atrium, the entrance hall, which serves as a lobby and showroom and also features the third zone, a suspended gallery that is used for several purposes. The frame constitutes the architectural emphasis, the round vertical steel support elements are so slender that they fade behind the visual impact of the room and their support function becomes sublimated. The climatic and spatial, though hardly noticeable, separation effected by the glass walls further contributes to the overall impression. They consist of large window formats, but the subtle components of the metal structure and its staggered arrangement visually negate any structural function, leaving the impression of a taut membrane. The production method and material effect are subordinate to this pure form of architecture. The offices are situated right behind the entrance hall. Their glazed side facades feature upright window vents and differ from the ethereal “glass membranes” of the entrance hall. A small, graveled garden courtyard with a maple tree creates a contemplative oasis of tranquility. The lateral sections of the site are also diligently landscaped, emphasizing the company′s high quality standards. A geothermal probe located in the groundwater supplies a heat pump, which heats the building in the winter and, if required, cools it in the summer. A controlled ventilation system has not been installed; the windows can be opened. A floor and cooling system suffices for the offices. In the portal building, this system is supplemented by an identical system in the ceiling. In this building, architectural and ecological standards are not mutually exclusive.
