Split House by FMD Architects: two identities for a single home
Split House is divided in two by a sharp line. On one side lies the past, on the other the present. On one side, the street-facing façade: elegant, dated by the typical shade of Manor Red and a protected element of the area’s cultural heritage. On the other, soberly hidden in the back garden, is the work of Australian firm FMD Architects. A spark of contemporaneity, commissioned with the aim of expanding and reorganising the available space, creating the perfect space for the big events of a growing family, but also for work and moments of creativity.

Gut Wagram: Destilat of Vienna for Weinmanufaktur Clemens Strobl
Viennese architecture and design studio Destilat has completed work on Gut Wagram, a large estate in southern Austria renovated for well-known winemaker Clemens Strobl. The project moves all the production facilities and the owners’ homes into the nineteenth-century estate known as Maierhof, already used to make wine for Winklberg castle. The renovation project involved the entire estate and the three buildings it contains, bringing back the natural magnificence of the place with a contemporary twist. Destilat’s project stands out for its balanced combination of antique and minimalist, classic and light.
