    Swiss textile company furnishes buildings in London and Lichtenfels

    Création Baumann has received two orders from England and Germany. In London, the Bern-based company, which specialises in textile interior design, is fitting out the 636 flats in the Newfoundland Tower with a version of its LORD curtain fabric that is colour-coordinated with the interior design concept, Création Baumann announced in a press release. The curtains reflect the light and achieve energy savings of up to 14 per cent. The fabric panels, totalling around 40 kilometres in length, are manufactured in Switzerland.

    In Germany, Création Baumann is fitting out the Archive of the Future in Lichtenfels near Bamberg. This is a pavilion surrounded by glass façades that can be fully opened, which houses offices and areas for exhibitions and events. Such “open architectural concepts with lots of glass rely on targeted lighting control to create optimal working conditions and protect rooms from overheating,” writes Création Baumann in a further press release. The textile manufacturer’s GUARD curtain fabric is being used in Lichtenfels. With its grid-like appearance, the aluminium-metallised fabric allows light into the interior, while its wafer-thin aluminium layer simultaneously protects against direct sunlight and glare.

    digitalSTROM launches new product

    digitalSTROM AG from Schlieren is launching a new device for the convenient operation of shadow facilities. According to the press release , electric roller shutters, awnings, blinds and curtains can be opened and closed digitally with the GR-KL300 universal shade clamp. This is done using digitalSTROM commands. These can also be given by a smartphone app. In this way, desired shading positions can be called up from a distance.

    According to the product description , the various types of shading, such as the height of blinds, can be freely configured using software. Several installations can be intelligently networked in the digitalSTROM system via the power line in the house. This makes it possible to control several shading devices in one room or in the entire apartment or house.

    With the GR-KL300, opening and closing can be controlled via a digitalSTROM button and automated if desired. Depending on the time of day, weather conditions or as a simulation of presence, a specific setting can be selected.

    The drive of the blinds or other systems can also be operated directly via buttons without digitalSTROM. The installation automatically recognizes the position of the shading device. And there is a shutdown when overload is indicated. According to digitalSTROM, the new device will be on the market from April 15th.
