- Summary:
- Die gelungene Verknüpfung eines regionalen Baustils von raffinierter Einfachheit mit einer nachhaltigen Bauweise verleiht der Vorarlberger Architektur weltweit Modellcharakter. Das Buch stellt besonders gelungene Projekte unterschiedlicher Bautypen aus den letzten Jahren vor, deren Entwicklung von der Entwurfsidee bis zum gebauten Detail. Der Schwerpunkt der dokumentierten Bauten von Cukrowicz Nachbaur, Christian Lenz, Oskar Leo Kaufmann + Albert Rüf, Hermann Kaufmann, Dietrich Untertrifaller, Baumschlager Eberle, Marte.Marte, Martin Rauch, u.a. liegt dabei auf dem Energiekonzept und der formal anspruchsvollen Konstruktionsweise. Alle Pläne und Detailzeichnungen wurden für das Buch eigens erstellt, was eine gute Vergleichbarkeit der Projekte gewährleistet.
- The successful combination of a regional building style of sophisticated simplicity with sustainable construction methods has made the architecture of Vorarlberg (Austria) a model for the rest of the world. This book presents particularly successful projects from recent years involving various building types and portrays their development from design idea to built detail. The documented structures by Cukrowicz Nachbaur, Christian Lenz, Oskar Leo Kaufmann + Albert Rüf, Hermann Kaufmann, Dietrich Untertrifaller, Baumschlager Eberle, Marte.Marte, and Martin Rauch place the focus on their energy strategy and formally ambitious construction methods. All of the plans and detail drawings were specially prepared for the book, which makes it easy to compare the projects.
