Projects with Troldtekt highlighted at Tag der Architektur

At a wide range of buildings – from homes to offices, administration facilities, schools and older buildings – the doors were opened to the public in connection with Tag der Architektur. Nationwide, this year’s event took place on the weekend of 25-26 June. However, in North Rhine-Westphalia and Schleswig-Holstein, the event was held earlier in the month.   

The event, which has been hosted by the German federal states’ chambers of architecture for more than 25 years, gives people with an interest in architecture the opportunity to take a closer look at a number of projects on site and to hear more about modern architecture and the advantages of using architects in connection with construction projects. 

Again this year, a number of projects with Troldtekt acoustic solutions were among the buildings that visitors could experience during Tag der Architektur.

“We’re very proud that our solutions are represented by Tag der Architektur in several states. It shows that German architects have generally welcomed Troldtekt acoustic solutions, which are still a relatively new product on the German market,” says Jesper Kvist, Country & Business Development Manager at Troldtekt GmbH.

Hesse: Two schools with Troldtekt

The Hesse state chamber of architects and urban planners (Architekten- und Stadtplanerkammer Hessen) had two schools with Troldtekt on the list of buildings that were open to visitors in conjunction with this year’s Tag der Architektur.

• One was Ludwig-Weber-Schule in the Sindelfingen district of Frankfurt. The Behnisch Architekten architecture firm has managed to create a new building which, in spite of its unassuming exterior, boasts plenty of space inside. Wood is a recurring material – and wood is also a primary raw material in the Troldtekt acoustic panels installed in the classrooms and sports hall. Read more about the school and see more photos
• Troldtekt acoustic panels are also part of the architecture at the recently extended Valentin-Traudt-Schule in Kassel. Read more online at Architekten- und Stadtplanerkammer Hessen (download Faltprogramm on the page (in German)
