Veranstaltungssaal und Kindergarten in Dornbirn
The refurbishment illuminated the church, and it was refurnished. The pews made of solid oak planks are clustered in the nave and open space is created at its sides. Narrow light slits were milled into the outer walls below the arched windows.
The premises of the wood retailer represent one of the largest warehouses constructed of wood in Central Europe. Impressive room dimensions, maximum operational flexibility and excellent adaptation to the topography characterize the building. The construction materials are part of the company’s product range.
The swank and modern sport hotel is situated directly at the lower terminus of the Steffisalp-Cableway. After an extension, it now offers 56 rooms and a wellness oasis.
The former machine factory has turned into an interactive exhibition of nature. The museum is situated within the idyllic city park that has been designed by landscape architects. A visit of the current exhibition of kunstraum Dornbirn located in the opposite factory hall is recommended.
Culinary as well as tasteful spatial qualities have become apparent after the reconstruction. The entrance – a glass container used to present wines – surprises; differentiated open areas such as the terrace, the lawn, the gravel yard and the light-filled dining rooms offer an exclusive feel-good atmosphere.
The clearly structured building attracts not only people with a toothache. Three artists left their mark. The attractions are an oversized photograph, an abstract set of teeth featured in front of a pink concrete wall and pink tulips in the form of a row of teeth as a counterpart.
The beautiful spot on a sunny hillside offers self-catering kitchens to sports enthusiasts and people looking for peace and quiet on the one hand. On the other hand they are provided with the "restless” infrastructure which meets the functional and aesthetic expectations.
A 58 meter long, wooden living cube floats above the architect’s office on the ground floor. The bright, transparent office rooms and apartments with spacious terraces which are accessible by exterior, wooden staircases, constitute the quality of the clear, pragmatic and above all ecological building structure.

As a consequence of the new construction’s positioning in relation to the existing church, a new square was created next to the guesthouses. It guides the visitors through an arcade of steel stanchions and high glass walls to the reception, the cafeteria and the dining room. Do not forget to marvel at the walk-in art object "Wasserhaus” on the premises.
