Architecture that lasts.

Places that exist only once.

From historic fabric, structures that have grown over time and distinctive landscapes, we develop architecture that cannot be mistaken for anything else.

Approach

“You have to ‘be fond of’ the building as it stands.”

Desire does not arise from surfaces. It arises when a place keeps its history and at the same time makes new life possible. We read what we find, uncover its qualities and build on with precision.

Our approach
Historic fabric, carefully built on
Object of desire

Not luxury through fittings.
Luxury through unrepeatability.

What is precious lies in what we find: in centuries-old beams, a distinctive topography, traces of use and the knowledge of regional craftspeople. Architecture becomes desirable when it does not replace these things but makes them visible.

Our way

From what we find to the unmistakable.

01

Reading

We observe, survey and understand before we design.

02

Uncovering

We strengthen the elements that give the place character and memory.

03

Building on

We add with precision, in a contemporary way and as little as possible.

Stadt : Labor

Two perspectives.
One shared approach.

Martin Mutschlechner and Barbara Lanz combine architectural precision with close observation of the place. Together with their team, they develop places that feel familiar and yet are new.

Special places call for special answers.

Whether a building, a public space or a neighbourhood: we start with what is already there and develop it further together.
