Nicole Bauer

Nicole discovered her passion for carpentry after initially studying environmental science. Drawn to sustainable building practices, she completed her apprenticeship focused on energy-efficient construction techniques. She joined Holzbau Müller three years ago, attracted by their commitment to environmentally responsible practices and the opportunity to work on passive house projects.

Experience: Early-career professional with specialized knowledge in sustainable building (4/10)

Favorite Jobs

• Energy-efficient building envelope installation
• Sustainable timber sourcing
• Passive house construction

Wood is the perfect building material for our climate-conscious age, storing carbon while providing superior insulation properties when used correctly. I'm passionate about demonstrating that traditional materials can meet and exceed modern environmental standards.

Physical Condition

Nicole is physically fit but suffered a minor hand injury yesterday when a chisel slipped. Today she has a bandaged index finger that causes some discomfort when gripping tools, limiting her dexterity for fine detail work, though she can still perform most tasks.

Favorite Place

Nicole loves the company's material testing corner where samples of different insulation systems and building envelope details are displayed, showing thermal performance characteristics. She has helped develop this area, adding educational components about embodied carbon and lifecycle analysis. The space combines technical data with physical examples, making abstract environmental concepts tangible for clients and colleagues alike.
