Current europlac project:
Zülpich/Tettnang. An architectural highlight with acoustic sophistication: europlac from Tettnang has completed a new prestigious project in Großarl in the Austrian Pongau region. The new Sky Lounge ‘Wolke 7' at the mountain station of the Kieserlbahn cable car shines after a comprehensive redesign with veneered acoustic panels made of ‘antique larch' in a stylish mix of timeless elegance and modern functionality.
‘Not only is it a beautiful place to look at, it's also an acoustic gem,' emphasises europlac managing director Marina Röhr. The lounge, designed with a keen sense of spatial effect, relies on the ‘INOIS® TS vario' acoustic panel system, which sets new standards in aesthetics and room comfort thanks to the variable arrangement of slats in width and spacing. The sound-absorbing elements were skilfully crafted by the Unterkofler joinery, a regional company based in Großarl. ‘The result is impressive - and, above all, audible,' Röhr continues. ‘Thanks to the veneer used, which perfectly highlights the natural beauty of the wood, a modern Alpine design with excellent room acoustics has been created.' Dirk-Uwe Klaas, Managing Director of the Veneer + Nature Initiative (IFN), is also enthusiastic: ‘High-quality sound absorption elements are particularly beneficial in heavily frequented areas today. And sustainably sourced veneer takes the whole thing to the next level in terms of appearance.' IFN/DS
Initiative Veneer + Nature (IFN)
