A slender steel framework supports top deck with 360° open view, to amplify the experiential relationship with the surrounding landscape. Materiality is deliberately restrained -
House MRH by Steinkogler Aigner Architekten
The existing building no longer met the needs of the family who lived there, but instead of tearing it down, it was rebuilt and expanded using a wooden construction method. While the northern half remained standing, the southern part was adapted and expanded - here, old and new were creatively woven together to form an airy and bright living area. Divided into different zones from a central block -
House H by Christ.Christ. associated architects
Situated on a sunny slope in a quiet villa district of Wiesbaden, this residence was designed for a young family of five. Toward the street, the house presents a restrained, introverted façade.

Located in the neighborhood of Koum Kapi, an area with mostly small plots and low-rise buildings, one of the main goals was to break down the building by introducing geometric volumes.

Footbridge over the Divoká Orlice River in Žamberk, Czech Republic by Klokner Institute CTU in Prague
The new footbridge replaced a classic, arched, concrete footbridge from the first half of the last century. The supporting structure consisted of a pair of concrete arches, each 350 mm thick. The footbridge was part of the town's skyline and was popular with the locals. Unfortunately, the original structure was in such poor condition that it had to be replaced with a new one. We came up with the

Fabricated out of aluminum, the four-part installation moves with
