Ried im Innkreis (AT)

The new TEAM 7 World

It will be one of the largest timber office buildings in Austria: With the new TEAM 7 Welt head office in Ried im Innkreis, WIEHAG is setting new standards in ecological timber construction.

The sustainability concept is implemented consistently and reflected in the resource management and ecology of the building. The special feature here: It is above all this corporate value that links the two companies from the Innviertel region.

The project's special feature

Unique timber construction in skeleton design

With a total net area of 6,100 square metres on four levels, the plan for the new TEAM 7 Welt is impressive. An outstanding feature of the planned building is the special skeleton construction. This also enables a particularly flexible façade design. On the street side, vertical sun protection slats made of untreated oak will be installed. The total of 6,000 solid cubic metres of round timber originates in part from TEAM 7's own company forest.

Project highlights

A naturally ecological timber construction

Low-tech building

Reduced-technology construction is the keyword: The new building will be low-maintenance, energy-efficient and resource-conserving.

Regenerative primary energy

Heating and cooling in the new TEAM 7 Welt will require no fossil primary energy.

Comfortable atmosphere

Whether natural living environments or inviting offices: Comfort is the focus in the new TEAM 7 Welt.

Inspiration from nature

Nature as far as the eye can see: Trees, courtyards and green roofs create a place of inspiration.

Shared values

We take responsibility from the tree to the finished product for the customer. With WIEHAG, we have found a timber engineering specialist who shares these values with us.

WIEHAG & TEAM 7

Living & building with wood

TEAM 7 is the Austrian brand for eco-design furniture. The company attaches particular importance to sustainability of the value chain. A principle that applies to TEAM 7 in manufacturing natural wood furniture is the basis for WIEHAG in timber construction. Sustainability not only dictates the thinking of both companies, but also their actions. This is illustrated not least by pioneering projects such as this one.
