“Gründerzeithaus”
Leopoldstraße 153 in
Munich
Task:
The aim was to completely redesign the colour
finish of the façade of this “Gründerzeit” building.
Examination of the old coating showed that multiple
layers of organically bonded, film-forming
coatings had been applied to the mineral façade
render and had resulted in building physics
limitations. The surfaces were highly soiled due
to thermoplastic effects and contained extensive
fine hairline cracks.
The following criteria were used to define the objective
of the new colour finish:
- The old multi-layered organic coating was to be
removed completely from the façade through
paint stripping.
- A coating system with high weathering resistance
and long lives, extreme water vapour
permeability, and an unmistakeable matt, mineral
character.
- By creating sample areas, a suitable paint system
and colour were to be found, which removed
the hairline crack phenomena with suitable
products.
- The new coating system should only be applied
using mineral paint techniques, very thinly with
a brush.
Project stages:
Due to the existing condition of the surfaces
found on site the old coating was removed completely.
Sample areas were created using the
defined technology. After making good existing
render and applying new render the planned
coating technology was applied. After the individual
work steps were completed the responsible
BEECK consultant examined the results and released
the finished areas for further work.
The work on site was checked and documented
continuously with regard to the specified products
and technology.
Result:
The standards worded in the objectives were
achieved. The coating system and colour defined
on the basis of old sample areas produced
a true-to-style matt appearance and lends the
façade surface a unique mineral profile.
