Einsatzzentrum Schwaz (Operational Centre)

Münchner Straße 21, 6130 Schwaz, A
Architecture: gharakhanzadeh sandbichler architekten (2007-2009) Builder-owner: Immobilien Schwaz GmbH & Co KEG TIP: There is a Fire Brigade Museum in the operational centre, with exhibits to be found in both niches and open space.

The Fire Brigade and the Schwaz Mountain Rescue Operations Centre is situated directly next to the Inn and the motorway approach road. The building is mainly at the rear of the grounds thus leaving a large amount of space at the front for the emergency vehicles. The dominant part of the building tiered down towards the river and promenade, is the 18 metre high glass hose-tower, which makes the building’s function visible from quite a distance.

Landeck Retirement Home, Reconstruction

Schulhausplatz 11, 6500 Landeck, A
Architecture: gharakhanzadeh sandbichler architekten (2004) Builder-owner: Stadtamt Landeck Open to the public: partially The project was part of the architects research work on "Revitalisation with Synergy Activating Modules (s.a.m)”.

With the use of prefabricated wooden components, a constructional, functional and artistic unsatisfactory building was – without disturbing the operational service – redeveloped and converted from a retirement home into a nursing home. The more or less disused terrace balconies were removed and the rooms extended by means of box type modules. The façade was covered in sheet-copper panels, colourful sun blinds contribute to making the building look much nicer.
