Decorative Laminates at Haus Brina-Senior Apartment Complex | PFLEIDERER

Pfleiderer is a leading manufacturer of high-quality wood products, laminates, and resins. Architect Sandra Caliebe equipped Haus Brina, a senior apartment complex in Düsseldorf, using Pfleiderer's Decorative Laminates - Duropal HPL and Melamine Faced Board - DecoBoard.

Architect Sandra Caliebe's design harmonizes diverse usage needs within a compact area by efficiently creating storage spaces, as well as color coding areas to separate uses. As she notes, accommodating residents transitioning from larger living spaces necessitates adequate storage solutions. The built-in wardrobes, space-efficient sliding doors, and thoughtfully arranged bathroom and kitchenette fixtures cater to both aesthetics and functionality, tailored to individual preferences.

While the public areas feature vibrant hues, distinguishing the property from conventional retirement homes, the apartments maintain a more neutral palette. This intentional choice allows residents to seamlessly integrate their cherished furniture, reflecting diverse personal styles. Splashes of color reappear in the bathrooms, adding subtle accents to the living spaces.

The use of the DST system by Pfleiderer facilitates the seamless integration of decors, structures, and substrates, meeting various requirements across trades. With options available in both Duropal HPL and Decoboard, the design collection prioritizes aesthetics without compromising on functionality, durability, or hygiene.
