Just like some specific physical spaces that are forced to extend their facilities to provide a better service. This is the case of the British school <\/span>Oak House School in Barcelona<\/b>, whose expansion plan included the construction of the building intended for highschool studies, <\/span>with a fa\u00e7ade clad with ACCOYA\u00ae acetylated wood<\/a><\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n Oak House School<\/a> | Arch: Trasbordo arquitectura y gerencia de construcci\u00f3n S.L. |\u00a0Product: Ventilated fa\u00e7ade \u2013 Accoya\u00ae tongue and groove units<\/p><\/div>\n This extension was opened up on land belonging to the school that had been occupied by an ancient villa with gardens. <\/span>The architectural studio Trasbordo worked with two priority ideas<\/b>: to listen to the history of the space where the building was going to be built and to respect the values of the landscape.<\/span><\/p>\n They managed to do so, and many other things, with a decision related to the building material of the fa\u00e7ade: they gave the building a skin made of <\/span>ACCOYA\u00ae sustainable wood<\/a>, whose aesthetic characteristics helped give the building the natural link to its location<\/b>, the foot of the Collserola mountains.<\/span><\/p>\n Oak House School<\/a> | Arch: Trasbordo arquitectura y gerencia de construcci\u00f3n S.L. |\u00a0Product: Ventilated fa\u00e7ade \u2013 Accoya\u00ae tongue and groove units<\/p><\/div>\n Oak House School<\/a> | Arch: Trasbordo arquitectura y gerencia de construcci\u00f3n S.L. |\u00a0Product: Ventilated fa\u00e7ade \u2013 Accoya\u00ae tongue and groove units<\/p><\/div>\n Its qualities as <\/span>one of the most resistant woods suitable for exteriors<\/b><\/a> ended up tipping the scale.
