Symbiosis of nature and design
In the south of Norway, one and a half hours from Kristiansand, Christian Wirth has fulfilled a lifelong dream: a house in Norway. At an altitude of 700 metres, the modern building, built in timber frame construction, rises in front of the imposing countryside of the Telemark ski area. There is snow here for four months of the year, and in summer the landscape invites you to go hiking, fishing and mushroom picking.
The combination makes it
Modular ONE, the innovative design flooring from Parador, offers the perfect complement. Modular ONE is a real all-rounder that is not only hard-wearing and easy to clean, but can also be used in any room thanks to its suitability for wet rooms and high dimensional stability - even in the bathroom and conservatory. What's more, due to its integrated acoustic backing and thanks to the resilient surface, the multi-talented flooring is particularly quiet and pleasantly warm underfoot. In addition, Modular ONE impresses with an extremely authentic surface quality that feels like real wood and also looks like real wood due to an extremely matt finish. Modular ONE is PVC- and plasticiser-free, "made in Germany" and meets the highest standards of healthy living – a true all-round talent and therefore the perfect floor covering for Christian Wirth's house. "When choosing the flooring, it was important to me that the flooring is robust, easy to maintain and copes well with water. With the large amounts of snow that fall here every year, this is essential," says the Frankfurt-born man. At the same time, the flooring should match the natural atmosphere of the house, radiating warmth and tranquillity. So the choice fell on the light "Oak Nordic beige" decor in a contemporary untreated wood look.
"I appreciate good ideas," says the IT entrepreneur praising the product benefits of the design flooring. The Modular ONE wide planks extend over around 130 square metres in the living and sleeping areas of the house. In addition to the robust surface and the authentic wood look, it was above all the aspects of sustainability and healthy living that were a major reason for choosing Modular ONE. "The floor layer also highlighted the easy handling during installation and the integrated cork footfall sound protection," reports Christian Wirth.
In combination with the other wooden elements, Modular ONE demonstrates its particularly authentic design: the light oak decor has a distinctly Nordic look and harmonises perfectly with the interior design of the house. Christian Wirth was truly able to realise his dream of a house in Norway here.
