Apartment buildings in Lausen

Häring built two separate, identical apartment buildings with state-of-the-art “free-cooling” air conditioning in Lausen on behalf of the “Vorsorgestiftung” pension foundation.

Their innovative timber façades stand out both visually and ecologically from their surroundings. The two separate buildings, with their design emphasis on clear, straight lines, create a shell for the apartments using our modular timber construction system standing on plinths on the slight gradient. Their wooden cladding has a structured pattern in muted tones interspersed with large, complementary eternit panels. The bright interior design of the apartments provides a striking contrast to the grey, pre-weathered, rear-ventilated timber façades with recessed anthracite windows, which all comes together to form an exciting colourful interplay.
