The villages in the Rhine Valley are traditionally linear and made of old timber farmhouses.
The Wolfurt Hofsteigstraße is still like this. The old road and several old farmhouses on this street are still preserved. The materialisation required by these surroundings has lifted the housing complex out of the ordinary.
The system is proof that there are creative possibilities despite the low construction costs.

"Schools are important buildings in the development of a human being. Here, a young person learns how spaces, materials, and architecturally created moods influence on a person’s health. As an architect one bears responsibility for the fact that the school building contributes to the well-being of its users and thus indirectly to learning success." Univ.-Prof. Arch.

It is often said that from the ashes of a tragedy, something beautiful rises. This applies to the Rheinhof in Hohenems. After a fire devastated the educational buildings it was decided to invest in a new centre and barn units. Alongside these new developments it was also decided to create a new, small residential unit for the site manager.

BSBZ Landwirtschaftsschulen Vorarlberg – Neubau Trakt E / BSBZ Agriculture School Vorarlberg – New Building Tract E
In the 1970s the technical agricultural and forestry school, near Hohnems, with its attached boarding facilities became the central training facility for Vorarlberg.
In order to take into account the dynamic development of this facility, the building had to be reprogrammed and enlarged several times over the following decades.

A renovation had become necessary, one that would rejuvenate functionality, energy efficiently and reincorporate the hotel back into its location.

A continuous layer of balconies with closed timber balustrades give the building a cubic form, an answer to the traditional house style of the Bregenzerwald.

Haus R/ House R
The position of the new garage forms a protective barrier for the garden, shielding it from the noise of the road and offering the space a sense of intimacy. From the garage there is now access to the house, via swing doors and covered walk-way. You can also reach the front door by passing a small, intimate porch.
The outside of the house is clad in natural, and regionally sourced, silver fir shingles and this surface finish continues into the interior. Despite the generous glazing on all sides, when entering the house the wood creates a homely atmosphere.

Einfamilienhaus K / Single Family Home K
From 1998, Home K is more than what one first expects. The architectural expression of the building is at first glance quite unusual and has nothing in common with the neighbouring traditional gable roofed houses. On closer inspection, however, parallels arise: the house respects the terrain, which was also the case with the historic buildings. The house is very simple in its architectural language and follows clear constructive principles.

"During the planning and implementation process, special attention was paid to resource-saving. All innovative components, building materials, construction methods and technical building equipment had to meet the criteria of sustainability and resource conservation. To achieve this goal an integrated planning process was adopted, creating a holistic approach to planned sustainability" Univ.-Prof. Arch. DI Hermann Kaufmann

"Nowhere in Europe has such a project been implemented. By combining experienced experts into the planning, a showcase of modern, ecological timber construction emerged in cooperation with the building owners and building authorities: pure wooden buildings over 4 storeys next to mixed timber construction, passive houses next to low-energy buildings, wooden facades next to plaster facades. But they all have one thing in common – a commitment to a good cause." Univ.-Prof. Arch. DI Hermann Kaufmann, DI Johannes Kaufmann

"It is not self-evident that such “functional buildings” are built with the inclusion of an architectural partner. The architect was involved in the early stages of the decision-making process, which involved the overall location and position of the buildings. This made it possible in all cases to respond to the specific location in the landscape. The role of the architect was therefore more than just the concept of the buildings."
