Major project on Lake Zurich

The ‘Stäfner Stein’ residential complex on the banks of Lake Zurich comprises seven apartment buildings containing approximately 67 rental and owner-occupied apartments. The 3½- to 6½-room owner-occupied apartments are built entirely of wood and meet the latest construction standards. All apartments are wheelchair-accessible and connected to the underground garage via the lift. The wood-concrete composite roofs ensure optimal noise insulation, while the spruce shingle facade gives the buildings their unmistakable character. The two four-storey rental buildings embrace a hybrid design where the floor slabs are concrete and the outer walls are made of wood elements. Swiss wood also makes an appearance in the facade cladding’s spruce shingles. We were on site with our assembly specialists from October 2015 to early summer 2016 to erect the timber construction. As joint general contractor, we also organised various services, such as the windows, sun protection, roofing and plumbing work as well as the shingle facade.
