New material, systems and technologies for the construction industry are being explored in the recently completed NEST innovations buildings in Dübendorf, which operates at an international level.
Instead of having a fixed spatial layout, individual work modules are installed as needed on the two open floors. The units of varying sizes offer plenty of space for teamwork and can also be used privately by individual employees.
The raw charm of the units encased in pressboards contrasts with the light oak floors. "Formpark” Mini can be installed in different laying patterns ensuring an unconventional look across the expansive floors. The warmth it emits creates a pleasant work environment.

In 1935, Ernst Göhner brought the idea of solid parquet to mass production before founding Bauwerk Parkett in 1944. Since then, Bauwerk has been researching, developing, and manufacturing innovative, aesthetic parquet solutions of the highest quality with great passion and Swiss precision. Original parquet floors by Bauwerk, one of Europe’s leading parquet manufacturers, offer the unique feel of a real piece of nature that provides tangible warmth and healthy living for a perfectly balanced atmosphere in any room.
