New reception and office building by Blumer Lehmann

New reception and office building at Erlenhof

The future headquarters of Blumer Lehmann will be an extraordinary timber construction with an eye-catching Free Form staircase. The designs for the new reception and office building at the headquarters in Gossau were drawn up by K&L Architekten.

A spacious entrance hall, a function room, a canteen with adjoining terrace and 180 workstations are all housed in the new reception and office building. The centrepiece of the impressive four-storey timber construction is the central Free Form staircase, which is being built in collaboration with the ICD/IKTE institutes of the University of Stuttgart. Two-layered timber elements, called bilayers, give the staircase the desired curved shape. It winds its way upwards like a modern tree trunk and connects the four storeys with each other.

The facade design of the timber construction is also striking and appealing. Projecting balconies with vertical lesenes provide natural sun protection and are supplemented by timber stacking elements in areas requiring greater sun protection and privacy. The building’s climate is controlled by ventilation and night cooling and the use of ventilation flaps. Activated piles are also used to extract heat from the soil or to dissipate it into the soil.

Unser neues Stammhaus entsteht

Besonders stolz sind wir darauf, für uns selbst zu bauen und unser Wissen und Know-how anzuwenden. 💪 Dabei geht ein grosser Wunsch in Erfüllung: Büros und top moderne Produktionsflächen nahe bei einander zu haben! In unserem Stammhaus werden viele neue Büroarbeitsplätze geschaffen. Es wird der zentrale Treffpunkt im Erlenhof sein, wo man zusammenkommt, "Znüni" isst und sich austauscht. 👫🥐☕ Wir freuen uns jetzt schon darauf!
