Design and architecture in harmony: the Wagner Design Lab of the seating furniture manufacturer Topstar\/Wagner (in Langenneufnach near Augs\u00acburg) is a design laboratory and showroom for chairs and other furniture. The concept of the architect Titus Bernhard (Augsburg): a cuboid built on top of the former home of the Wagner family, the two opposing long sides of which make it look completely open due to the size of the glass panes. This highlight originates from the direct neighborhood: the glass processor sedak (Gersthofen) produced four triple insulation glass panes for the new showroom, each with a size of 3.04 x 19.21 meters. The glass panes are constructed from a double thermally toughened glass laminate with a heat-protection coating and an SG interlayer. This creates two areas of glass of 117 square meters \u2013 each with only a single joint. The Wagner Design Lab is the first construction worldwide with glass in this oversized format. „Iconic buildings with large glass areas have so far mostly been realized in the USA, Arabia and other parts of Asia. We are delighted that we are now getting increasing numbers of inquiries from closer to home“, said Bernhard Veh, Managing Director of sedak, „and now even in the direct neighborhood of our headquarters“. Following the Trade Fair Tower in Frankfurt with 17 meter glass panes, the showroom is the second project within a short time in which oversized glass has been used for construction in Germany.<\/p>\n
Neighborly symbiosis<\/strong><\/p>\n The project came to life in a close partnership between the companies under the maxim „achieving big things together“. With the Design Lab, Wagner demonstrates impressively that the power of joint innovation can lead to exceptional results. The two groundbreaking medium-sized companies are not only united through the proximity of their locations: „With mutual vision and courage, companies can create big things together“, explained Peter Wagner, Managing Director and co-owner of the furniture manufacturer, „here in two senses \u2013 the big glass panes are representative of the big idea behind the project“. The glass fa\u00e7ades and the furniture on display thereby enter into a harmonious relationship with each other. The high transparency of the fa\u00e7ade creates a feeling of exclusivity and maximum openness \u2013 this impression also reflects on the furniture and emphasizes the quality standard of Wagner.<\/p>\n The installation of the glass panes in the fa\u00e7ade in March 2020 is an important milestone \u2013 the opening of the showroom is planned for this summer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Glass processing in the superlative: sedak supplies glass panes up <\/p>\n For the production of glass in oversized formats sedak <\/p>\n For the production of glass in oversized formats sedak <\/p>\n Design and architecture combined: the 233.6 square meters of glass on <\/p>\n A milestone is achieved: with technical know-how and a great deal of dexterity <\/p>\n A milestone is achieved: with technical know-how and a great deal of dexterity <\/p>\n Achieving big things together: Bernhard Veh (Managing Director of sedak), <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Credits board<\/strong><\/p>\n Project: Wagner Design Lab <\/p>\n <\/p>\n sedak \u2013 leading glass<\/strong> Topstar\/Wagner<\/strong> <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For more information please contact:<\/p>\n Reprint free of charge, copy requested<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Leading glass<\/strong><\/p>\n sedak, the glass manufacturer in Gersthofen, Germany, was founded in 2007.
