The Mainau 2040 Masterplan competition includes a large number of different functions and buildings, all of which contribute to the same strategy: the sustainable further development of Mainau as a cultural treasure. The island is already listed as a monument of special importance. The focus was on the careful use of resources in harmony with nature in the sensitive region of Lake Constance as well as on aesthetic-cultural sustainability. The highlight and landmark is the new Palm Cathedral, which forms the new focal point of the island. The self-contained building, which was developed especially for this location, consists of four barrel-like glass volumes. These contain event and exhibition facilities, a restaurant and a jungle playground. Four differently shaped, elegant structural elements – evocative of floral structures – createimpressive spaces and are the unique selling point of the new building, responsible for its high recognition and identification value.

The design proposal for the new school is a predominantly timber construction with a repetitive structural rhythm. This allows for an open, robust and versatile form that does not prescribe a specific use, making it fit for the future. Interconnected structures, links and combinations, open and closed zones, air spaces and atriums, balconies and outdoor terraces, as differentiated places, not only form the structural parameters, they also form the basis for future uses. They imagine learning and working in the most diverse constellations; new communities and creative networking, for new social worlds.

Developed as a subtle addition to the historical ensemble of freestanding buildings, this new office mediates between two linear urban structures by assuming a parallelogram-shaped footprint. At the same time, tracing the street, the addition spatially redefines and sharpens the flow of Marktgasse while increasing the prominence of neighboring existing buildings. Three gable elements of equal size facing south take up the historical rhythm of the characteristic roof ridge landscape. The formation of a single transverse gable towards Landsgemeindeplatz makes the building recognisable and asserts the location of the courtroom as the most important room of the building.

Competition 2020 1st prize

The Bishop’s Burial Vault in Rottenburg was honoured with the 3rd prize at the 2020 GEPLANT+AUSGEFÜHRT award.

Was ist eigentlich schön? Ist das Kunst oder kann das weg? Was ist echt und was ist fake? Was ist das Geheimnis wahrer Inspiration – jenseits von Kitsch und Mainstream? Eine Konferenz auf der Suche danach, was Kreativität morgen heißen kann. Voller Geist. Voller Exzellenz. Und dabei so richtig gut drauf. Es ist Zeit für eine Revolution der Schönheit. Die SCHØN findet vom 11.- 14.06. in Augsburg statt, der Vortrag von Andreas Cukrowicz am 12.06.2020.

Due to the current situation the SCHØN conference unfortunately had to be cancelled.

Two new buildings, which share a square shape but vary in height, complement the neighbouring church, technical school and elementary school to create a balanced new architectural ensemble. The precise placement of the new buildings develops distinctive, well-proportioned outdoor spaces which define a village square as the new centre of the district. The two square volumes help to create order in the heterogeneous environment.

Competition 2020 1st prize

The Bishop’s Burial Vault in Rottenburg was awarded with a recognition at the State Award for Building Culture Baden-Württemberg 2020 on 30th March 2020. The prize was offered by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Housing of Baden-Württemberg.

House builders and craftsmen who like to experiment, pioneering architects, a liberal building law, an open-minded population and a culture of cooperation are responsible for the fact that a very special density of interesting architecture has been created in Vorarlberg for five decades. In this exhibition, the Az W Architekturzentrum Wien shows key buildings by the building artists Hans Purin, Rudolf Wäger, Gunter Wratzfeld and the architects’ community C4 and places them in relation to works by a younger generation: ARTEC Architects, bernardo bader architects, Cukrowicz Nachbaur Architects, HEIN Architects, Helena Weber Architect. The intergenerational dialogue is to be understood literally: “Old” and “Young” meet in filmed conversations and exchange ideas about distinctive buildings and protagonists. Curator: Sonja Pisarik, Az W | Assistance: Katrin Sting, Az W. Image source: Darko Todorovic. Exhibition druation from March 17th, 2020 to September 5th, 2020. Exhibition at VAI – Vorarlberger Architektur Institut

A concrete table structure creates an open ground floor zone and three room levels in wood. The formal design idea evokes the image of a tree. The combined result is modular living in maximum privacy in the treetops of a beautiful park.

Taking shape as four carefully placed, elongated buildings, the housing closely follows the flow of the local landscape. This concept maximizes the open space around each building and generates the best views for each building.

Competition 2019 1st prize

Derived from the archaic image of a typical regional house, the visitor centre’s linear and open structure interprets farmyard typologies and floor plans from around the rural Salzburg landscape. The visitor centre unites all functions on one level under a large common roof and enters into an exciting dialogue with the strongly vertical emphasis of the tree trunks in its woodland setting.

Building on the neighbourhood’s compositional theme of multi-height buildings, a seven-storey, tower-like volume will be developed on  a set-back site east of the former textile school, which will continue the gentle undulation of the roofscape and relate to the high points of the quarter.

Competition 2019 1st prize

AIT ONLINE DIALOG interviews Andreas Cukrowicz with regard to the motto: a question to:…

Temporary buildings, three-dimensional structures and spaces made of one material: space defines itself as dimensions of height, length and width. However, the conception of unconventional and surprising spaces is about much more than following the basic principles of design. What makes a room a three-dimensional emotional experience? What role do context and material play in this?

Please find the answers here.

On Thursday, July 12, 2018, the contract was handed to Andreas Cukrowicz and Anton Nachbaur at a ceremonial act in the Prinz-Carl-Palais.

Drawing on the idea of a progression of public spaces, the project is spread across two buildings which are offset from each other. That gives rise to a theme of ‘tight and narrow’, which evokes a typical streetscape and also allows the composition to open onto public piazzas.

Competition 2017 1^st prize.

The new quarter is organised as a patchwork of various sports- and play facilities, punctuated by individually landscaped pathways and patios. By minimising the visible volume of the hall, the new building appears as a freestanding pavilion.  This design idea has straightforward origins: the sunken hall area evokes the form of a simple vessel, while the roof acts as its lid. Four solid circulation cores support a corporeal roof, lending a sense of activity to the overall appearance.
