As general contractor, Blumer Lehmann carried out the modular construction using timber modules made in our own production facility in Gossau. The extension for the École Internationale Mondorf-les-Bains school challenged the Blumer Lehmann project team in different ways.
As the first public building headed by our Luxembourg office, the modular timber construction for the École Internationale Mondorf-les-Bains first had to be analysed as the schedule for the planning, production and erection of the timber modules was very ambitious.
The two-storey modular timber structure ‘Bâtiment E’ has a floor area of 2,400 m2 and a lift, and was built of 84 prefabricated timber modules. The ground floor of the modular school structure houses a large industrial kitchen with a counter and a dining hall for around 1,000 pupils aged 6 to 18. Classrooms, meeting rooms, a teaching kitchen, art room, music hall and drama rooms are on the upper floor of ‘Bâtiment E’. The international school in Mondorf-les-Bains took up residence in the modular timber construction on time, ready for school to restart after the 2021 summer holidays.
