Guides & Ideas

The condensation problem no one talks about in new builds
Nikolai Hentzschel, General Manager at Solutionair, has seen it time and time again. A homeowner is buoyant at handover. The house is brand new, double-glazed, meticulously insulated, compliant with every modern standard. Six months later, the call comes in. Condensation running down the inside of the windows. Curtains damp to the touch. A faint, stubborn smell that won’t quite go away.
Plants pay:                                                                                                      The commercial case for greening your space
As commercial property owners look for smarter ways to improve existing buildings, strategic planting is emerging as more than an aesthetic upgrade. GreenAir explains why thoughtfully designed greenery is changing how workplaces are used and why that matters to the bottom line.
More than a surface: Why early material selection matters
For the founders of Natural Stone Imports, helping architects, designers and homeowners make informed material choices early in the design process has been at the heart of the business since day one.
