Unterdorf Elementary School / Dietrich | Untertrifaller Architekten

Andreas Luco — Sun, 18 Jul 2021 06:00:00 +0000

The elementary school provides an ideal educational facility for modern pedagogic approaches. It is an uncompromising example of cluster design offering a flexible and nurturing learning environment. In an elegant, one-story wooden structure, four identical teaching clusters are situated around a top-lighted lounge with a raised roof. The flat building blends harmoniously into the environment of single-family houses. The schoolyard in front of the auditorium is connected to the Unterdorf path network. Local residents can use parts of the outdoor areas and sports facilities.

Klostergasse Studio / Bernardo Bader Architekten

Paula Pintos — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 06:00:00 +0000

After having worked in an old workshop for fifteen years in Dornbirn, I overcame my inner resistance and built a studio for myself and my staff. On more than one occasion during my walks through Bregenz, I noticed near the train station a small derelict building plot with a transformer station that was no longer in operation. With a bit of luck, we were able to purchase the small plot inside the city center, perhaps also because it wasn't particularly appealing to investors due to the small size and because underground parking was not an option.

Schendlingen School / Matthias Bär, Bernd Riegger and Querformat

Daniel Tapia — Mon, 05 Mar 2018 03:00:00 +0000

The new Schendlingen school in Bregenz (Austria) is a very ambitious project on the part of the clients and educators. On the one hand, an innovative school is intended to provide a clear impetus and enhance the socially problematic catchment area (social focus). On the other hand, the building was designed as a “Gemeinsame Schule” (common school) with a broad age spectrum (for pupils aged 6 to 14 years) as well as a very open and flexible spatial structure.

Hypo / Dietrich | Untertrifaller Architekten

Sabrina Leiva — Fri, 05 Jan 2018 11:00:00 +0000

This was once the site of the Montfort, a hotel built in Bregenz in 1877 during the Gründerzeit era. In 1921, architect Willibald Braun erected an adjoining and historicizing building with a neo-classicist façade for the Provincial Parliament of Vorarlberg. The hotel, the “Graues Haus” (grey house), served as an administration building to the Provincial Government. Between 1981 and 1984, after the construction of the new parliament, it was replaced by a postmodernist office and commercial building with an inclined roof. The building is linked to the city centre via a diagonal passage. Extensive refurbishments, to be completed by 2008, will once again redefine this part of the city.

House Sch / Dietrich | Untertrifaller Architekten

Valentina Villa — Sun, 25 Dec 2016 13:00:00 +0000

Built on an extremely steep piece of land with an area of only 450m², Dietrich│Untertrifaller designed this single family home to best fit the constraints of the site. While a concrete core ties the house to the hill and contains all service rooms, a more open wooden structure was chosen for the living area and bedrooms. The form of the home allows for the focal point of all the interior spaces to be the forests below.

House D / Dietrich | Untertrifaller Architekten

Valentina Villa — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 03:00:00 +0000

Located on a mountain overlooking Bregenz, Haus D′s open floorplans and generous glazing allow for magnificent views over the surrounding countryside and Lake Constance. The home is stratified into 3 stories, with the Entrée and utilities located on the first floor, guest and children′s rooms on the second, and Master bedroom and an open layout kitchen+dining+living room on the third. In order to strengthen the connection to the natural environment, the third floor also boasts a patio which wraps around the entirety of the building.

Pfarrhaus Krumbach / + Bernardo Bader + Bechter Zaffignani Architekten + Architekten Hermann Kaufmann

Daniela Cardenas — Wed, 07 Sep 2016 02:00:00 +0000

For over ten years the municipality of Krumbach pursued a very committed construction program, which essentially concerned the structural development of the village center. The rectory is seen as a preliminary ‘milestone’ in this process. In its function as a cultural and multipurpose building, the rectory plays an important role in Krumbach’s public life, reinforced by its spatial presence in the in the village square. Inside the building, a parish hall (small village hall), the parish office with rectory as well as a library and the rehearsal room for the music club and choir. The diverse range of uses provides additional vitalization and attractiveness for Krumbach’s village center.

Vorarlberg Museum / Cukrowicz Nachbaur Architekten

Karen Valenzuela — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

The new Vorarlberg museum completes the row of several culture buildings at the waterside of Lake Constance. The extraordinary concept is based on the principle of architectural continuity and it expands a listed building vertically and horizontally generating a new building form not by contrast but by contact of all parts differentiating them only by their surface structure.

Karen Valenzuela — Tue, 25 Nov 2014 00:00:00 +0000

This small studio for drawing, painting and sculpture acts as a visual device itself by bidirectionally framing its surroundings.

House by the Lake / Marte.Marte Architects

Daniel Sánchez — Tue, 12 Aug 2014 18:00:00 +0000

A group of middle-class houses, mainly built in the first half of the 20th century, are located above the Herz-Jesu church at the foot of the prominent Pfänder mountainside in Bregenz. The size of the house blends in with the other sporadic, villa-like houses, and the compact, square exposed concrete structure has identical facades on all sides, except for the west side of the house facing the lake.
