Haus Maier
Architecture: Josef Lackner (1977) Builder-owner: Josef Maier South oft the house, Lackner built a studio and storeroom that was also meant to serve as a protective wall against avalanches and landslides.
The patron wanted an economical wooden house, so Lackner "simply” designed a wooden structure radially hanging from a concrete pile. The consequent mushroom-like shape beautifully responds also to the special needs of the patron. The very self-assertive building, although not resembling any familiar typology, due to the choice of materials, fits well into the environment.
