Design-to-Production November 29, 2024  设计和制作:

A true icon of craftsmanship and collaboration: the 20-metre-high Muni Max sculpture embodies the synergies of the eastern Swiss timber industry.
Driven by the Säntis Innovation Cluster (SICH), the project involves a collaborative effort of over 80 companies in design, planning, and fabrication.
We have been a key partner from the project‘s early stages, contributing to design optimisation for DfMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly), parametric modelling, project management, and digital process quality assurance.
The sculpture directly references the traditional ‘Muni’ bull, awarded to the best wrestler every three years at the Swiss Wrestling and Alpine Festival (ESAF). Muni Max will feature prominently at the Mollis edition of the festival in August 2025. Afterwards, it will be repurposed as an observation platform for Säntis Bergbahnen, standing as a testament to regional timber expertise and the collaboration across the entire value chain—from forestry and sawmills to carpentry and education.
