Innsbruck Climbing Center

Matthias-Schmid-Straße 12c, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Thomas Schnizer (2015-2017) Builder-owner: IIG Open to the public: Partially (bistro) Tip: Watch the climbers from the Sillpromenade.

After several halls of a former printing shop had already been converted for sporting purposes, it made sense to situate the new climbing center at this location as well. A large bouldering facility was housed in the existing building, and a cube was built on Ing.-Etzel-Straße for the nearly 18-meter-high climbing hall. Together with three freely placed, sculptural climbing walls and the existing building, an exciting ensemble that includes well-usable open spaces evolved.

Wattens Sports Hall

Egger Lienz Straße 9, 6112 Wattens, A
Architecture: obermoser arch-omo, Thomas Schnizer (2007-2008) Builder-owner: Marktgemeinde Wattens Open to the public: partially

Although the sports hall was built for the neighbouring primary school and is also used by the community’s various sports clubs, it was actually designed by the architects as a building for public use. A large part of the building, covered by a roof with a double bend, is sunken into the ground; the ground floor opens towards the road through a generously glazed foyer. A stand for 300 spectators completes the flowing crossover from the foyer down to the triple gymnasium.

Volksschule Innere Stadt (Central elementary school)

Angerzellgasse 12, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Thomas Schnizer, Gerald Prenner (2003-2005) Builder-owner: BIG Open to the public: The garden between the school, the old university building and the Jesuits’ College.

What formerly had been the university botanic garden is now a park-like public green with old trees right in the centre of town. By situating the transparent structure of the new elementary school along Angerzellgasse, and by building three underground gyms – which are used by the adjacent high school as well – it was possible not to disturb the park as a peaceful "green island” in the hectic inner city.

Footbridge over the river Inn

Innstraße, 6500 Landeck, A
Architecture: Thomas Schnizer (1997) Builder-owner: Stadtgemeinde Landeck Supporting-structure planning: Wolfgang Schnizer, Andreas Sigl

As a connection between the office area on the left bank of the Inn and the business centre in the Angedair district, Thomas Schnizer designed a footbridge with a horizontal structure that has a resolving effect on the urban area. With its well thought out details and the well planned access ramps, the bridge combines the town design with constructive sensibility.
