The new road-link to the B 404 brought the company facility more into the focal point of the public and inspired the principal toward a sophisticated facade for the extension of his production facility. The facade embraces the new production facility and accompanies the road in a dispersed extension in the form of a fence. The multi-coating surface leads to a colour progression from grey to gold which, according to angle and light conditions, varies. The facade moves, so to speak, with the passer-by. Out of the un-perforated areas of sheeting, the company logo "LAUKIEN" arises. The perforations are slightly staggered and have a diameter of 5 cm. The roadside trees form an attractive contrast to the technical facade. Through the distance to the production facility behind and the falling light, a feeling of depth and attractive structures of light and shade arises. Toward the yard side the facade opens with windows and a Profilit glazing. The above mounted perforated sheeting acts as an anti-glare shield. Around sunset the inner illumination causes attractive colour and light progressions. The company logo is rear-illuminated and presents itself impressively toward the road.
