With subtle and well-tempered architectural interventions at Schloss Lackenbach, the history of one of the oldest Renaissance castles of the Burgenland is continued, and existing time layers were accentuated with contemporary design. The entire premises were restructured in their main areas. The renovation of existing buildings, the design of the new entrance pavilion and the comprehensive redesigning of the gardens all produced individual solutions that added up to a harmonious ambience for a contemporary exhibition and event venue. It was possible, despite differences in approach, to bring complex requirements together into a common whole.
