Haus mit Kapelle

Stadt:Labor Architekten

 

Haus mit Kapelle by Stadt:Labor Architekten is an extensive renovation project of a former mill from the 16th century and a chapel from the 18th century in Mutters, Austria. While the two structures were previously only used for agricultural, respectively religious purposes, the transformation of 2007 provided a new family home, increasing the usable surface area significantly.
This project contributes to the social-ecological transformation by showing the impact of individual initiative in terms of preserving cultural heritage and repurposing old structures with new functions. In accordance with the existing buildings, the architectural expression is favouriting atmospheres rather than specified, giving space to the history while leaving options for further adaptions.
