MPREIS and Canteen Jenbach

Schießstandstrasse 1, 6200 Jenbach, A
Architecture: reitter_architekten, Michael Pfleger (2001) Builder-owner: MPREIS Open to the public: during opening hours

A new type of supermarket was developed for two promoters, Jenbacher Werke (canteen) and MPREIS (supermarket): With the historic fish market in Venice as an example, a new type of roofed market under a large elevated building, in which the canteen for 300 persons, a casino, a kitchen, a works doctor and a large south terrace for the Jenbacher Werke are accommodated.

Schichtholzwerk Binder Holz (Binder Holz wood layer factory)

Tiwagstraße 3, 6200 Jenbach, A
Architecture: Josef Lackner (1996) Builder-owner: Binder Holz Close by is the "Jenbacher AG” area which also contains an office building and a factory building by Lackner, and an MPREIS store and the Jenbach Cantina by Helmut Reitter and Michael Pfleger.

This is a both structurally and spatially most intriguing variation on the theme of industrial buildings: Without any support, folding wood box elements stretch over two shops, each 44 m broad and over 100 m long. Through glass panels along the single elements, which somewhat resemble boats turned upside down, daylight flows in freely. The zigzag movement of the diagonal entrenchments adds rhythm to the façade.
