New Apostolic Church Michelfeld

Sculptural architecture

Diese, in Massivbauweise errichtete Kirche, verströmt mit ihrer organischen Form und der Verwendung von viel Holz eine einladende Atmosphäre.
Die fast skulpturale Form der Kirche in Michelfeld ist ein echter Blickfang und macht neugierig auf das Innere.
Die Deckenverkleidungen in Weißtanne sorgen im Kircheninneren für eine optimale Raumakustik und eine angenehme Atmosphäre.

Its sculptural architecture makes the building the centre of the congre-gational life of the New Apostolic Church in Michelfeld. Around 200 be-lievers fit into the organically shaped church, which was built in solid construction. It is certified to have exceptionally good acoustics: Genuine timber acoustic profiles as load-bearing roof elements and as wall fil-lings are used to significantly reduce reverberation in the high church interior.

Configuration overview

Components used

  • LIGNO® Acoustic light  |  Ceiling cladding 

    Product code: LIGNO® Acoustic light 3S_33_a70g_625-12-4_WTL_gb_buv
    Wood type


    Various wood species are available for the visible layer. For quality reasons, individual wood species cannot be configured for all profiles; for technical reasons, surface treatments are excluded for some wood species.

    Wood type

    _WTL Silver fir knotless, patterned

    Profile


    The visible layer is profiled with joints. The code for profiling indicates in millimetres: Element width, strip width (rounded, from/to if applicable) and joint width (rounded) as well as a letter identification for variants, e.g. with chamfered strip edges or with additional height gradation. 

    Note: Some profiles indirectly cause exclusions for other configuration options.

    Profile 

    _625-12-4 Slat profile 

    Structure


    The face is subjected to a brushing _gb as standard, which produces a stronger or weaker structure depending on the type of wood and makes the surface less sensitive to scratches.  Alternatively, a smooth sanding _gs can be carried out, or on request a bandsaw cut _grimitated.

    Structure

    _gb Brushed

    Treatment


    Depending on the type of wood, the optional application of a surface treatment is possible ex works. Individual colour finishes are always sampled for coordination. For elements in individual lengths, colour treatment is limited to max. 5 m length.

    Treatment

    _buv UV-protection stain

    Room acoustics

     

    If the soffit of the element is to have a good sound-absorbing effect, the penultimate layer is configured as absorber _a50g. Otherwise, this layer is configured as a solid wood layer _a0.
