Architecture Awards 2021

44 BUILD 2021 Architecture Awards May21110 BUILD Excellence Award in Residential Architectural Design - Austria A multi-award-winning architectural practice of Austria with international renown, Wolf Reicht Architects continues to grow from strength to strength. We have a closer look at the firm in the wake of its most recent success at the BUILD Architecture Awards 2021. ased in Vienna, Wolf Reicht Architects is a forward thinking architectural practice unlike any other. Founded by internationally renowned architect and Member of the Chamber of Architects Vienna, Austria, Wolfgang Reicht, the architectural practice is comprised of an interdisciplinary team that works to design and create whole worlds within a single building. Located all over the world, Wolf Reicht’s buildings are courageous in design and spectacular in appearance. They are, after all, the most effective business card or advertising campaign that an architect can have at their disposal. That B is why Wolfgang never stops at the architectural structure of a project but goes further, setting himself apart in his field by assuming the role of interior designer as well, so as to deliver complete, interconnected spaces. “We are inspired by hybrid and flexible designs and believe in their synergetic effects,” says the team at Wolf Reicht. “From the first sketch onwards we are integrating smart energy systems, thinking of additional benefits for now and the future - following a concept that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. “We call it: Efficient Aesthetics.” The result is holistic design that is achieved through the multiplicity of simple interactions that come together in complex systems. Not only does this ensure cohesion across every element of the project, it also means clients do not have to source skills and materials from different locations – they are all available through Wolfgang and his practice. Working on a mixture of residential and commercial properties that include hotels, museums and sports centres, Wolf Reicht is now responsible for a myriad of eccentric landmark buildings across the world’s thriving cities. The skylines of India, China and across Europe now feature the work of Wolfgang. There are few higher honours or sources of pride for any prestigious architect. This is not to deny the successes that have been recognised by Wolf Reicht’s roster of awards acquired over the years. Named among Austria’s Top Architects by Discover Germany, a winner at the 2020 Luxury Lifestyle Awards and this year, winner of the BUILD Excellence Award in Residential Architectural Design for Austria, it is clear that the journey so far has been one of tremendous success for Wolf Reicht Architects. No doubt we can expect even greater success in the journey to come. Contact: Wolfgang Reicht Company: WOLF REICHT ARCHITECTS Web Address: www.wolfreicht.com/index.htm
