Know

that there is a future in it.

Experience the fulfilling feeling of a new generation of hotel rooms.

Our Circular Living rooms are not just a place to stay, but an experience that engages your senses and nourishes your soul. Every furnishing material, fabric and piece of furniture has been selected with your healthy regenerative quality in mind, so you can truly immerse yourself in an environment of relaxation and inspiration.

Their careful interior design promotes relaxation, recuperation and well-being at the highest level. The improved air quality creates an indoor climate that not only positively influences your sleep quality, but can also support your mood and physical health.

The image shows an exploded graphic of a sustainably designed bedroom interior. It is a detailed representation that highlights different elements of the room, such as the bed, the mattress, the parquet floor, the wall color and the picture frame. Each element is explained by small signs with labels indicating the environmentally friendly certifications, such as "cradle to cradle" and "ÖKO-TEX STANDARD 100". The objects appear to float in the air and are graphically connected to their descriptions by lines to clarify their position and function in space. At the bottom of the image there are icons that symbolize various sustainability aspects such as water saving, CO2 neutrality and recyclability.

Healthy living according to
the highest quality standards

Our circular room concept is designed in such a way that it can be adapted, scaled and multiplied for renovations, refurbishments or new builds. Circular Living is therefore an important milestone for the entire hospitality industry with regard to the 1.5-degree target of the Paris Climate Agreement and the European Green Deal as part of the solution. This is backed up by high international certification and assessment standards such as Cradle to Cradle Certified® and EcoVadis as well as the GreenSign Institute for Sustainable Development and the Circular Material LAB of the design agency RITTWEGER and TEAM, sustainability experts for material-focused decarbonisation in Scope 3. The CIRCULAR LIVING hotel rooms in the SCHWARZWALD PANORAMA are being realised in close collaboration with the renowned Black Forest hotel interior designer FRITZ SCHLECHT | SHL, which is itself EcoVadis certified and Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver.

Future in detail

We understand the importance of relieving stress and finding an oasis of calm. That’s why we have taken special care to select only furnishing materials and furniture that maximise the healthiness of our Circular Living rooms.

Circular Living achieves a number of improvements when renovating and furnishing our hotel rooms. By using recyclable materials and components, resources remain usable for future generations and process-related CO2e emissions in production are reduced. We have secured the return of the materials used through take-back agreements with the most important suppliers and manufacturers. This ensures that the materials can be reused and that the carbon from CO2 stored in the material flows is retained beyond the current life cycle.

 

Construction material

Parquet Studiopark Oak

In our hotel rooms we have installed high-quality oak parquet in the form of fine country house floorboards with wood from controlled sources. This exclusive flooring was carefully selected to meet our high aesthetic standards and strict sustainability criteria. The parquet has been awarded the Cradle to Cradle Certified ™ Bronze and thus meets the quality standards for eco-effectiveness such as material health and recyclability. The eco-INSTITUT label and testing for harmful substances by the Sentinel Haus Institute confirm compliance with strict pollutant and emission requirements.

Carefully selected according to the criteria:

       

Parquet adhesive UZIN MK 200 T

For a durable, stable and low-emission connection of the high-quality oak parquet to the floor, the parquet adhesive plays a major role. The Uzin MK 200 T adhesive meets these requirements and has accordingly been awarded the EMICODE EC 1 PLUS seal as very low in emissions. In this way, our guests are guaranteed the highest indoor air quality and a healthy living environment.

Gypsum Levelling compound UZIN NC 110

Setting up a healthy hotel room with high-quality parquet and good indoor air quality starts with choosing the right plaster levelling compound. We chose Uzin NC 110, which has been awarded the Blue Angel eco-label, to level out unevenness in the floor. This levelling compound meets the highest standards for healthy living and environmental friendliness. This is because it is very low in emissions and has been awarded the highest EMICODE EC 1 PLUS seal for this and fulfils the requirements of LEED v4 for the criterion “low-emitting materials” as well as the emission limits according to BREEAM. Furthermore, the levelling compound fulfils quality level 4 of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).

Roller filler keim marano-roll

With the KEIM Marano-Roll roller filler, the hotel room walls can be smoothed and provide a good substrate for the subsequent application of wallpaper and paint. In the Falkenstein rooms, this forms the basis for the application of the 3D wall fillers.

Wall and ceiling paint keim innostar

With its high opacity and healthy living properties, the premium paint KEIM Innostar is the ideal coating for the walls and ceilings of our hotel rooms. The paint has been awarded Cradle to Cradle Certified ™ Silver overall and even Cradle to Cradle Certified ™M Gold for material health. In addition, the natureplus eco-label, the Sentinel Haus Institut pollutant test and the classification in the French emission class A+ prove the outstanding quality.

After the life cycle, the natural fibres are composted and the synthetic fibres are completely recycled. The 100% recyclable textiles are Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver and OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified.

SWISSFEEL mattresses are a unique innovation in the mattress industry. This is because SWISSFEEL mattresses do not have to be disposed of after every 5 years of use for hygienic reasons, but can simply be washed. This triples the useful life of the mattresses to a total of 15 years and avoids the use of new resources for production and greenhouse gas emissions caused by the incineration of two conventional mattresses.

The same material from which the Circular Living furniture is built, we also use for our custom-made home accessories. The Flower of Life, engraved on round furniture panels in the Freigeist rooms, symbolises harmony and beauty, radiates positive energy and creates a calming, harmonising atmosphere for our guests. We have chosen the healthy DecoBoard P2 material for this, an environmentally friendly chipboard with melamine coating.

Upcycling Lamps form wine bottles

In the “Waldklang” rooms, we focus on creative sustainability. Our lampshades are made from empty glass bottles of our house wines, which thus find a second life as unique up-cycled lamps. These original lampshades not only add a charming touch to the room, but also create a special atmosphere. Left as they are with wine labels, waste products are thus transformed into stylish design elements.

Picture frames made from emission-minimised

Our custom-made picture frames at Circular Living are made of the same high-quality material as our Circular Living furniture. The healthy living DecoBoard P2 material we use, an environmentally friendly chipboard with melamine coating from Pfleiderer, offers outstanding quality and sustainability.

TUTAKA Clothes hanger made from meadow grass

The Tutaka clothes hangers made of meadow grass were specifically selected for our hotel room décor and represent a milestone in sustainable design.

With an impressive proportion of around 30% meadow grass in the material mix, they are not only bio-based, but also extremely climate-friendly. No new plastic, no virgin crude oil – instead, up-cycling of recycled plastic. Manufactured in Germany on highly efficient equipment, they shorten transport distances and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Tutaka clothes hangers made from meadow grass are a pioneering example of the circular economy.
