Within the framework of the IBA and BUGA, the study explores the potential of modular housing using different building typologies on two specific building sites. The typologies range from dense low-rise buildings to terrace houses and high-rise clusters. The modules are approx. 3m x 6m large, standardized, fully equipped room modules in reinforced concrete construction by the company maxmodul (Max Bögl).
For 15 years, BIM has been the basis in planning at syntax architektur. We trust in the not yet known possibilities of tomorrow.
Stability of value leads to identification and appreciation. The design of the everyday should therefore be given a higher priority than the search for the special.
Subsidized housing has a long tradition in Austria, is social policy in action, and therefore an important challenge for us!
It is not primarily a matter of developing a new style or conforming to a fashion, but of finding a coherent answer to all project-specific questions.
We love the region in which we work. Surrounded by vineyards, forest and water, the head remains free for fresh architectural ideas.
International experience applied regionally. That is our strength.
Every house is a personality. Individual like the people who live in it. Unique and rooted to the place where they are.
Architecture must be seen as a holistic task that is only solved when all requirements such as ecology, economic efficiency, constructive intelligence and social acceptance are met.
People's needs shape our buildings. Therefore, the design of the everyday should be given a higher priority than the search for the special.
The aging ability of the materials used, which change more or less quickly over time, plays an essential role. Patina and traces of use are deliberately planned effects that are allowed to develop over the years.
