Free-formed wooden exoskeleton
The free-form exoskeleton in timber construction has an impressive size of around 42 m x 33 m with a height of 25 m and consists of 1314 individual glulam components. Due to the proximity to the coast, special attention had to be paid to the corrosion protection of the components used.
