New Scott Headquarters illuminated by Zumtobel

Alles andere als gewöhnlich: Die Architekten von IttenBrechbühl in Bern haben für Scott Sports ein neues Headquarter entworfen, bei dem nichts dem Zufall überlassen wurde. Auch Zumtobel war an dem innovativen Bauprojekt maßgeblich beteiligt. Mit einer maßgeschneiderten Lichtlösung und durch gekonntes Verbergen der Technik ist es gelungen, eine angenehme Arbeitswelt zu schaffen, in der sich die Mitarbeiter wohlfühlen. Surprenant : tel pourrait être qualifié le nouveau projet de siège social de Scott Sports, imaginé par les architectes du cabinet IttenBrechbühl, et pour lequel rien n’a été laissé au hasard. Zumtobel a également participé à ce projet de construction innovant. Grâce à une solution d’éclairage sur mesure et au camouflage habile de la technologie, il a été possible de créer un environnement de travail agréable dans lequel les employés se sentent à l’aise.

Haus am Schottentor, Wien | Zumtobel

Neues Licht für denkmalgeschützte Räume Mehr als 50 Sorten Fisch und Meeresfrüchte, verlockende Fleisch- und Käsespezialitäten bis hin zu frisch zubereiteter Pasta: Wo einst Bankschalter standen, füllen heute Frischetheken und Kühlvitrinen voll kulinarischer Köstlichkeiten den Raum. In mehr als dreijähriger Planungs- und Umbauzeit hat der Immobilienentwickler PEMA den Schalterhallen im Wiener „Haus am Schottentor“ neues Leben eingehaucht. Das denkmalgeschützte Bauwerk, initiiert von Anselm von Rothschild, war einst prägend für Bankneubauten in ganz Europa. Heute dient es als attraktiver Nahversorger im Herzen der Stadt. Das Lichtkonzept von Zumtobel setzt nicht nur das Gourmet-Angebot von INTERSPAR Österreich gekonnt in Szene, sondern beleuchtet auch eine spannende Epoche europäischer Architekturgeschichte.

JOHANN JOHANNSSON "Flight From The City" - Víkingur Ólafsson Rework

Shot in the barren landscape of a desert, their film presents Berlin-based, Russian-born dancer Valentin Tszin’s interpretation of Jóhannsson’s score. His emotionally charged improvisation unlocks the expressive power and physical energy of the butoh dance genre. Founded in Japan in the late 1950s by two great dance masters, butoh has a rich language of gestures and movements and enjoys wide international appeal today. Tszin explores the nature of metamorphosis in his dance, while Waldschütz and Rotter employ a range of camera techniques – including shooting through prisms, creating mirrored images and using the different perspective offered by drone footage – to create a short film full of the symbolism of change and new beginnings. Jóhann Jóhannsson (1969–2018) was a leading figure in a dynamic and developing scene of composers who move freely and innovatively between film scores, minimalist classical, ambient and electronic music. His visionary work and unique musical language redefined the film scoring landscape, blurring the lines between score and sound design. Within his unique sonic spaces he developed extraordinary otherworldly textures, but also gave the music space to breathe and evolve. “Flight from the City – Víkingur Ólafsson Rework” is based on the opening track of Jóhannsson’s milestone debut DG album Orphée. Ólafsson’s hypnotic playing and meditative reflections on “Flight from the City” also accompany a new music video directed by Andreas Waldschütz and Lukas Rotter, a project welcomed by the pianist. “In March 2018, a month after Jóhann died,” Ólafsson explains, “I met with our mutual friend and collaborator Christian Badzura to record this improvised, elegiac fantasy over Jóhann’s ‘Flight from the City’. I am grateful to see it come alive in this beautiful video by Andreas and Lukas.” Directed by: Andreas Waldschütz & Lukas Rotter Producer: Lukas Rotter Camera: Andreas Waldschütz Drone Camera: Faruk Pinjo Edit: Andreas Waldschütz Post production: Michael Hollinger @ mindconsole Perfomance by Valentin Tszin Set photographer: Kamil Rutkowski Outfits by KAI GERHARDT

Appearing Sculptural | Maiden Tower

Synopsis: "Appearing Sculptural” takes a dynamic, cinematic approach to the past works of the Austrian studio Marte.Marte Architects. The audiovisual series - consisting of six short films – was created by photographer and avantgarde filmmaker Andreas Waldschütz, who unconventionally and sensually re-staged Marte.Marte´s most sculptural buildings. The dark ambient-like soundtrack of composer and sound-designer Stefan Hoffmeister is based exclusively on recordings made on location. The films screen at Marte.Marte´s second monographic exhibition and at the 15th Architcture Biennale 2016 in Venice.

A walk-in sculpture was planted between the remnants of the foundations of two different house types. The disc-like tower and the space creating wall fragments along a trapezoid-shaped plateau stage the location in front of the collection of findings. The use of corten steel throughout permeates the site with an historic aura and underscores the sculpted effect of the free form that helps make the excavation site a landmark.

Appearing Sculptural | Mountain Cabin

"Appearing Sculptural” takes a dynamic, cinematic approach to the past works of the Austrian studio Marte.Marte Architects. The audiovisual series - consisting of six short films – was created by photographer and avantgarde filmmaker Andreas Waldschütz, who unconventionally and sensually re-staged Marte.Marte´s most sculptural buildings. The dark ambient-like soundtrack of composer and sound-designer Stefan Hoffmeister is based exclusively on recordings made on location.

Crew: Director, Camera, Editing: Andreas Waldschuetz Camera, Time Lapse and Digital Operator: Faruk Pinjo Drone Camera Pilot: Manuel Gernaert Production Coordinator: Joerg Stadler/ Marte.Marte Architects Music and Sound Design: Stefan Hoffmeister Post Production: Thomas Rath The building: Mountain Cabin Laterns.Vorarlberg.Austria | 2012 At the edge of a wooded ravine, beneath the imposing wooden house of the Catholic Community of Sisters, the small tower building rises from the steep hillside. Striking and modest in appearance, it stretches up out of a small hollow situated on a narrow path along the edge of the forest. The only change made to the hillside is the driveway and the terrain has been left in its original form. Fitting into the landscape as if it were a barn, the building, which is a fine example of the homogeneous use of materials, in this case, carefully hewn rough concrete, stands out against the meadow green and winter white. Its ashy-gray colour only contrasts slightly with the heavy oak front doors and the anthracite-coloured handrails blend in with the branches of the surrounding forest. As if they were punched into the walls, the square windows of different sizes are spread out across the walls, and their full effect is only achieved at the corners. The integration of the outer surfaces requested by the client is a kind of artifice. At the entry level, which is accessible via a flight a steps, the structure narrows down to two supporting corner columns, which not only provides guests with the unique opportunity to look through the building while at the same time enjoying a panorama view of the surrounding landscape, the whole time protected from the elements, but also lends the entrance a sense of significance. Inside the column, a spiral staircase connects the living area on the upper level with the two more private areas on the lower level, where the bedrooms and relaxation areas are interlocked like a puzzle. Semantically speaking, this gesture of the tower creates archetypes of fortified structures and abstract computer figures in your mind’s eye, making the tower seem familiar and strange at one and the same time. Inside, the openings punched into the double-walled concrete shell are transformed into framed landscape paintings by wide, matte solid oak window frames that do not take up much wall space. These framed windows direct the guest’s attention to the prominent mountain chain, the gentle slopes and the dense forest grove. Besides the raw concrete surfaces and the untreated oak floors, doors and fixtures, the black metal surfaces complement the harmonious, austere combination of materials. The client and architects haven’t built a flimsy holiday house, but instead a place of retreat that will remain standing for generations, despite any forthcoming changes of climate and landscape.

The public square has been completed by a monolithic block placed on the gently rising land to the northeast. The foundation and main level divide the hermetic shell for the diocese’s church treasures, and bring the large cube into harmony with the scale of the surrounding buildings. On the ground floor, the foyer and the multi-functional temporary exhibition room blend into one spatial unit. Inside, one gets the impression of an open space spanning the entire width and running right up to the square in front, and light flows through a pendant into the ceiling area on the slope side. The permanent exhibition on the upper floor, a higher than expected, centred space, connects the linear stairs and the lift situated diagonally on the side walls. The eye of those walking up is caught by a cross-shaped, stamped skylight. Exposed concrete, smooth white surfaces and polished concrete emphasize the homogeneity and character of the building and carries forward the radicality of the outside’s form and material on the inside.

MoonLashes luxury silverware: Function meets aesthetics

Born of an innovative flair and a delicate production process, MoonLashes collection is an elegantly, ergonomically developed silverware, which enhances the fine dining experience. All the 19 pieces are ideally balanced and serve as tools in the background, bowing to the culinary artistry of the chef! The knife is sharp, the prongs of the fork diagonal, the bowl of the spoon inclined and the butter spreader a functional ‘sculpture’. Aesthetically stunning and highly practical, while considering even left- and right-handed users, the collection is available also in gold, silver, titanium, and copper. From the famous Steirereck by Heinz Reitbauer in Vienna, the Red Bull Hangar-7 in Salzburg, Eckart Witzigmann’s former restaurant Tantris and the BMW World in Munich, the Glow by Armin Amrein in Davos, the former Cocoon Club by Mario Lohninger and Sven Väth, as well as Gabriel Kreuther’s restaurant and the World of McIntosh in Manhattan, New York, the MoonLashes silverware complements the dishes of the World’s greatest chefs.

The railway, the federal highway and the new cycling path offer access to the southernmost valley of Vorarlberg, which is surrounded by high Alpine mountain ranges. Running parallel with the valley, the raging Ill River, prone to flooding, crosses the Alfenz River from the east and channels the Alfenz River into its current. A few meters before the confluence, the new concrete bridge structure spans the tributary and grants pedestrians and cyclists safe passage. A supporting structure underneath was not possible because of the lay of the land and the required flood control. The solution to this problem was a covered bridge with load-bearing capacity on the lateral sides. Modelled on bionic principles, the irregularly placed struts and ties, which are noticeably thicker at the ends, create a bridge house with open sides. The inclination of the trusses is determined by the shear force and is thus steeper the closer the struts are to the bridge bearing. There are more walls on the side facing the heavily travelled road, whereas on the Ill River side the triangles of the framework offer a view of nature. The structural wall frame responds to environmental influences and supporting loads by means of the different sized openings. The character and overall aesthetic are a result of structural logic and the efficient use of materials. Thus, the connection to the Bludenz-Schruns cycling path has been, literally, “massively” improved, since the bridge, through its concise design, is certainly a hard-to-miss landmark in the network of car-free mobility.
