HERTL.ARCHITEKTEN was founded in 2000 by Gernot Hertl and is set in
the city centre of Steyr. Their work has received international
recognition in only a few years. Through early publications and
increasing project dimensions the practice became one of Austria’s best
known architecture studios.The breadth of realized projects
ranges from cultural via residential to commercial buildings and from
social housing to the small garden cabin.A language of clear
shapes combined with emphasizing on less but effective sensual elements
aims to create space atmosphere and aura. Not the pure function but the
mood, not a two-dimensional stratifaction but the urban logic determine
the structure of our ideas.As a team we work together to ensure design excellence, budget
control and project management. We believe that architectural quality
results from the synthesis of concept, function, context, sensuality and
beauty.HERTL. ARCHITEKTEN has won many competitions and awards, national and international.
