Nature and Culture Panorama "Gacher Blick”

Gachenblick 100, 6521 Fließ, A
Architecture: columbosnext (2015-2016) Builder-owner: Naturpark Kaunergrat Accessibility: From Landeck via Fließ or the Pitztal Valley in the direction of the Nature Park House Kaunergrat TIP: Nature Park House with a multimedia exhibition on the Kaunergrat Nature Park

As an extension of the existing Nature Park House at the "Gacher Blick” – the interface between the Kaunertal, Pitztal and Inntal valleys – a nature and cultural panorama with an observation platform was realized. A newly laid out path, executed in plain concrete elements, leads to a bridge and the platform that projects far over the terrain, which steeply slopes 800 meters downward. Grating on the ground and on the side, as well as a glass front enhance the all-around experience of nature at this extremely exposed spot.

The "I want to be close to the river” platform

Walther-von-der-Vogelweide Park, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: columbosnext (2008) Builder-owner: aut. architektur und tirol Attention! The platform was removed in may 2010.

For the "2008 Days of Architecture”, aut. architektur und tirol commissioned a 52 m long multi-use walk-on platform in the Walther Park. The temporary building, designed by the columbosnext group, after the "Days of Architecture” remained, first until autumn, then with another permit for nearly two more years, inviting the general public to appropriate a piece of public space and use it for various purposes – and, not in the least, to stop turning their backs to the river instead of experiencing it as a vital part of the cityscape.
