Healthy Living

Architecture for well-being.

We spend, on average, up to 90 percent of our time indoors, which highlights the importance of having a healthy building and good indoor air quality for our well-being.

Kontio’s timber buildings stand out by offering exceptionally high indoor air quality. The insulating properties of natural wood are outstanding, creating an effective balance in temperature and humidity throughout the seasons, providing an environment that enhances comfort at home.

The timber used is not only exceptional from a functional perspective, but it is also a unique and eco-friendly material that gives the building a distinctive and dignified atmosphere. Research shows that the presence of wooden surfaces reduces stress and promotes relaxation. Furthermore, timber is an excellent acoustic material, further improving the overall atmosphere within the building.
