at vorarlberg museum
Ausstellung
The canapé … is my pleasure
The idea about the exhibition came up many years ago when Johannes Mohr told us about his many restored canapés from the Bregenzerwald, all of them dated between 1820 and 1840. The vorarlberg museum got enthusiastic about the subject of Biedermeier sofas, and so the exhibition was presented during three month in the Atrium of vorarlberg museum, a free of charge public space in the entrance floor of the museum.

Building Information Modelling has fundamentally changed our planning process as architects. We work exclusively on a 3D model, the digital twin of the building. Instead of a pile of blueprints, today we are on the construction site with the digital building model. Due to the increasing complexity, the building is communicated better and the workflow is more precise.

Topping out ceremony of Fire Brigade Station Hohenweiler
In order to build this fire station in the local community of 1,300 inhabitants, a compact, efficient solution was found, that connects the functional requirements and amenities of community life in an appropriate way. Two of the goals were to ensure excellent functionality and satisfaction amongst the usesrs. This could have been realised troughout an intense participation of the Hohenweiler fire brigade, not only in terms of functional concept and selections of materials, but also in terms of constructional development.
