PARK-TOWER IN ZUG
High-rises are a model for creating new living concepts. These also pose a challenge in planning the various applications. Zurich architect Naomi Hajnos was tasked with designing the interiors of most of the flats (as well as offices and clinics), with 3 to 4 flats per floor of the 25-floor Park-Tower building in Zug developed by axess Architekten (Zug) and Cometti Truffer Architekten (Luzern).
She studied in detail the various preferences of the owners of the flats and designed the specific floor plans and application concepts as well as material and colour combinations. They subtly reflect the urban character of Zug’s new landmark. The uncompromising approach to the quality of the materials used is also reflected in the selection of the flooring. We had a chat with the architect and asked her about her own experiences with Bauwerk Parkett products.
What was the biggest challenge of this project?
There was no standard layout plan. We designed every flat according to the personal needs of the owners, each with a unique pattern.
What was the first step in developing the interior design?
We always begin with the floors, respectively with its materialization. In seventy per cent of the flats, we used wood everywhere. Looking for a suitable parquet, we relatively quickly found the products from Bauwerk Parkett. They fit well with the modern image of Park-Tower. They’re broad and yet discreet elements and have a wonderful, silky sheen and are unique to the touch. We found this ideal for the rather cold, straight-line architecture. The flats’ large window fronts let in a lot of light, which really makes the quality of the parquet apparent.
