Breakthrough – With a strong focus on decorative surfaces we made a giant leap into the international market
It is said that a strong focus is important if success is to be achieved. We dared to do it and it has paid off in many ways. We are particularly pleased with the spectacular solutions that architects and designers have made with Lunawood Thermowood, as in recent years architects and designers have repeatedly chosen Lunawood Thermowood for stunning projects all around the world. In sustainable construction, material choices have become increasingly important and ecological wood materials are becoming increasingly popular. This change has also boosted Lunawood’s global recognition and popularity, as Lunawood’s products are truly sustainable at end of of their life cycle.
Several projects finished with Lunawood products have received recognition in the architectural media and competitions. We are grateful to share a collection of stunning, award-winning Lunawood projects from around the world.
