Osmo from Around the World: This time from Japan

The town of Nagi is located in northeastern Okayama Prefecture, a region in western Japan. In Nagi Town, a nursery school and two kindergartens were integrated to establish Nagi-cho Nagikko Childcare & Kindergarten, a certified early childhood education and care facility. The school provides a seamless learning environment for children aged 0 to 5, combining childcare with early education.

Designed to harmonize with the surrounding natural landscape, the school features a spacious layout centered around a 100-meter-long room called “Nagimichi”, along which the nursery and playrooms are arranged in a series of folds.

The expansive space is structurally supported by exposed CLT and other wooden components, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The European Oak flooring is treated with Osmo Polyx®-Oil Original in a custom colour for a natural and durable finish.

Spain: SINGULAR TABLES OF UNIQUE ELEMENTS
A Millenary Wisdom, Finished with OSMO

In the town of Pedreguer, on the Costa Blanca in Spain, there is the Unique Elements carpentry workshop, owned by the artisan Nadal. He settled in this beautiful coastal area of Spain with his family, coming from Germany.
Nadal manufactures solid wood tables from different species of deciduous trees, such as oak, poplar, and pine. Each table is unique in its dimensions and finish, following the client's guidelines.
Starting from the trunk, Nadal crafts the top of each table using traditional techniques combined with modern tool technology. The finish is always applied using Osmo products.
Nadal tells us: "In Europe, the appreciation for wood in interior design has changed radically. We have moved away from impersonal and sterile environments, where wood had a smooth, uniform texture—almost a flat surface—to a newfound admiration for the beauty of imperfection and the unique characteristics of each tree, what the Japanese call 'Wabi-Sabi.' Now, people want a table 'with history,' one that somehow brings nature into their home. The table, which tells a meaningful story, becomes the centerpiece of the living room, just as each tree is the focal point of its natural space. Thanks to Osmo, I have complete versatility in the finish and the ability to use technological materials, such as epoxy resins in different colors. The properties of Osmo Polyx®-Oil allow me to achieve more or less glossy finishes, with or without pigments, on both smooth and textured surfaces. It works perfectly at the junctions between resin and wood, ensuring a seamless transition. I use Original Polyx®-Oil Clear Glossy (3011), Satin (3032), or Matte (3062), depending on the design. For pigments, I rely on the Oil Stain range, which offers over 11 standard colors and endless mixing possibilities. For stone-carved sinks, I use Osmo Concrete Oil."
Unique Elements employs millenary techniques originating from Japan, such as Urushi and Tsukuroi, to add personality to its tables and sinks. This process is calm, meticulous, and artisanal.
Wood is always the right choice. Osmo is the perfect coating.

THE WILD TABLES OF MORICHE ATELIER

This solid wood table developed by Moriche Atelier is a masterpiece that combines the natural beauty of American red oak with the wisdom and artistry of Pavel Moriche. The heartwood of this American red oak is known for its characteristic light pink tone, highly prized in decoration.
American red oak (Quercus rubra) is a tree native to North America, introduced to Europe during the 18th century for the shipbuilding industry because of its rapid growth. Later, when the natural durability of the heartwood was found to be low, it was discarded for naval use; today in Spain it is cultivated and grows wild all over the Cantabrian coast, forming forests with beautiful foliage.
At Osmo, we are fortunate that Pavel has chosen Osmo as the most suitable treatment for his "wild sculptures", his beautiful creations: he applies and "caresses" our Polyx®-Oil Original 3032 Clear Satin into the wood by hand in the first layers, to detect the smallest sanding irregularities, penetrating and nourishing the wood naturally.
Each piece coming out of Moriche Atelier is a work of art and a healing amulet, working as a union between man and nature, throughout this concentrated and wise work. Pavel puts his soul into each piece and so there is a bit of Pavel's soul in each piece and a bit of the ancestral wisdom of each tree in the heart of Pavel and each end user.
Here we see a part of the process.
The finished piece will preside over the dining room of a beautiful country house on the island of Ibiza.

Osmo from Around the World: This time from Japan.

Osmo was selected for the new school building at Minobu Junior High School in Minobu-cho, Minamikoma-gun, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, which was completed in March 2024.

The new Minobu Junior High School building was constructed in response to the aging of the previous school building. It is a two-story, partially wood-frame, partially reinforced concrete school building with a lot of wood from the prefecture and the town. In the entrance hall, there are six cedar pillars, which are more than 100 years old and were donated by Kuonji Temple on Mt. Minobu.

To protect the wood and to achieve a finish that brings out the unique appearance of each wood piece, Osmo was used on the interior and exterior wood surfaces. A custom color was selected that most closely matched the client's wishes, aiming for a natural finish close to the wood's original surface.

Osmo from Around the World: This time from Bulgaria.

This is a three-story house with high energy efficiency and a comfortable layout of the interior spaces. The facade and interior layout are filled with elements of Bulgarian national architecture, mostly inspired by Plovdiv Revival architecture.

The first and second floors are wooden structures. The cladding, joinery and terrace railing are made of Siberian larch. For long-lasting wood protection Osmo Natural Oil Woodstain was chosen.
We are very proud that Phivex participated as a flooring contractor. A unique flooring type, designed by Phivex, was installed on the first floor. In other areas, a selection of traditional flooring patterns was installed. Combinations of different woods give you free rein for creativity and to customize floor texture for a unique result. To protect them comprehensively, Osmo Polyx®-Oil Original was used.

Osmo from Around the World: This time from Poland.

The Beskidy Mountains, surrounded by the green of mountain forests and majestic peaks, hide in their heart a real treasure of ecological architecture - Natur House Beskidy. This place in Poland not only impresses with its unique location, but also with its unique structure and atmosphere that transports guests to a completely different world.
One of the aspects that highlights uniqueness of Natur House is the fact that this charming house is elevated as much as three meters above the ground. This unusual positioning gives guests a unique opportunity to observe wild animals and the surrounding peaks, creating an unforgettable experience and close contact with nature.
What else distinguishes Natur House from other places in Poland? It is a unique structure made of moon wood. This wood comes from forests that grow in ecological areas, and the technology of producing moon wood is environmentally friendly. This makes Natur House Beskidy one of the few places where you will encounter this unusual material.
The interior of Natur House Beskidy is a real paradise for nature lovers. Simplicity, naturalness and elegance are the words that describe every nook and cranny of this magical place. The walls in the bedrooms are covered with clay plaster, which not only add charm, but also have a positive effect on the health and wellbeing of guests. It is an ideal place to relax and unwind, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and surrounded by the greenery of the Beskid Mountains.
The façade of Natur House Beskidy is also an element that deserves attention. It was protected with Osmo UV-Protection-Oil Extra 420 and in places with Osmo Country Colour 2716 Anthracite Grey, which not only highlights the beauty of wood, but also protects it against weather conditions and allows it to maintain its natural charm for years.

Osmo from Around the World: This time from Singapore.

This modern residential home in Singapore was designed and developed by Park Associates. The architects utilised a combination of the glass, steel and wood to create a bright and airy structure. Despite the abundance of glass and steel, this house has still a natural feel to it thanks to the wooden elements used under the roof soffits and as cladding and privacy screens.
All wooden elements were installed and treated by Calvary Carpentry Pte Ltd and are made of Accoya® or acetylated timber. Through the acetylation, the wood is generally more durable, dimensionally more stable and lasts longer. However, because Accoya® timber is more susceptible to blue stain, it was necessary to impregnate the wooden elements with Osmo WR Base Coat 4001. This base coat offers optimum protection against blue stain, rot and wood-destroying insects. After the impregnation, the timber was treated with an Osmo coating developed specifically for the project.

Architect Firm: Park Associates
Osmo Partner: Calvary Carpentry Pte Ltd
Products used: WR Base Coat 4001 and Special coating prepared for Accoya
Scope: Screens, Soffit and Cladding
