Engineered wood flooring sets a high-contrast accent

The historic Flechtheim-Speicher is located on the banks of the Dortmund-Ems Canal, with a direct view of the lively Münster port promenade with its numerous cafes and restaurants. The imposing brick building dating back to 1900 was originally used as a granary, then as a warehouse for various goods – from food to fuel. The Flechtheim-Speicher has been unused since 2007. With its eventful history, the listed historic monument will now be revived as an office and medical complex.

To this end, the Flechtheim-Speicher was comprehensively modernised and expanded with an adjoining building section. Historic and modern architecture merge here, giving the eight-story building ensemble its individual character. The landmark of the Münster city port shines in a new light. Today it houses offices, studios, and doctor's surgeries, as well as the Wolfgang Borchert Theatre, which regularly impresses visitors.

It also houses the communications agency Kopfkunst, which embellished its spacious offices with the engineered wood flooring Oak anthracite brushed from the Trendtime 4 product range. The dark engineered wood flooring provides a contrast to the high, open ceiling with its striking concrete braces and clean lines. This contrast highlights the difference between historic and modern architecture and plays an important role in bringing a new shine to the Münster port's landmark.
