Caramel Architekten

A new challenge every time – each project is a new challenge – this is our motto at Caramel architects. Caramel relies on its successful participation in international architecture competitions and is often awarded contracts and commissions – including its most recent construction projects. Besides the realization of large projects like Science Park Linz, adidas world of sports west Herzogenaurach, WIFI‐Dornbirn, Operation Workshop Building Ansfelden, and Federal School Centre Krems the trio’s members apply themselves to design studies and innovative single family house projects. Idealism and inventive talent play a major role in their designs. Caramel’s lecture series, courses, and art projects like the contribution for the Austrian pavilion at the architecture biennale 2016 in Venice are the salt in the soup of everyday architectural life.
