The integrated design of both phases ? high-tech production plant and office building ? was the work of ATP architects engineers, Innsbruck. A special feature of the project was that the buildings built in Phase 1 produced the timber elements used in the buildings built in Phase 2. This creates a true sense of identity for the employees working in the office building, because they are surrounded every day by the materials that they produce in-house.
?A special requirement for the design of the CLT plant was that the available resources ? above all timber ? should be used sustainably,? explains the ATP architect, Petra Oberacher. Due to the proximity of the village of Steinfeld, the design team also had to pay particular attention to reducing the levels of both noise and dust. Hence, ATP used the BIM model to simulate the optimal positioning of the almost 200-meter-long and 15-meter-high building volume on the gently sloping site, in order to minimize the impact on local residents.

In addition to this, the production building...
