Wohnturm Amraser Straße
Opposite the public indoor swimming pool in the Amras district of Innsbruck, an imposing residential tower now stands, replacing a former workers' residence and a small ice cream shop. With its twelve floors, the tower serves as striking evidence that bold decisions can pay off: although the original competition called for a six-storey building, a twelve-storey design ultimately prevailed. The result is a modern residential complex with 44 apartments,

The primary goal was to create a home that blends harmoniously with the architectural heritage of the area while adapting to the specific microlocations where it would be built. The concept was developed in several variations, ranging from 30 m²

Gitti
Gitti is located in Gyeongju, a prominent cultural heritage site in Korea. The main challenge was to design a modern building that respects Gyeongju’s traditional landscape without directly replicating the form of Hanok, traditional Korean architecture. To create a layered landscape that harmonizes tradition and modernity, a combination of gable and flat roofs, as well as reinforced concrete and wooden structures, was used. Additionally, the architectural layout of Hanok
