These visual landmarks in this project include the Leopoldkron Castle, the Leopoldskorner pond, the fortress Hohensalzburg and the Untersberg.

The house was designed in a “C” shape, turning its back to the surroundings and facing an interior patio that opens only in an unobstructed area.
Concept: The deep dark green colour has become dominant in the space, even enveloping. That creates a sense of intimacy and depth, as if visitors are inside a wine bottle. The interiors of the restaurant and bar have the same style, but still differ in details. For example, for the dynamic mood the floor covering in the bar is made more colourful.
