Träffpunkt Simonsland, Borås
Träffpunkt Simonsland is the location of municipal services for the elderly and the disabled and their associations. The building also houses around 45 associations and organisations for the elderly and disabled.
The entrance has been made more accessible – a Matting Jaguar scraper mat with marking studs as a guidance system has been installed outside at the entrance. Inside the doors there is a Maximus Image with a visual guidance system imprinted into the wiper matting. This is followed by a wider variant of Matting’s Aluminium tactile guidance system with light-coloured inserts. A very stylish and functional solution that runs throughout the entrance area.

Glasiären, Gothenburg
Glasiären (‘the Glacier’) is a newly built office block in Kvillebäcken. It is a spectacular building named ‘the Glacier’ because the building and its glass façades act as a barrier between the residential district and the tramline. It is designed as a futuristic office block with 5 floors and a totally unique glass façade. The façade’s special glass panes are controlled electronically and change colour to adjust the amount of incoming sunlight and heat.
Matting’s Tactile Guidance Systems in aluminium have been used to ensure the accessibility of the building. Light-coloured inserts have been used for the library and darker ones for the rest of the building. This optimises the contrast with the floor.
