Peter Pichler Architecture has won a private competition to design Villa Salzburg, a project in Austria set to incorporate rammed earth as a primary material, enhancing both its aesthetic appeal and sustainability.
At the heart of Villa Salzburg’s design concept lies a commitment to celebrating the harmony between nature and architecture. The villa’s exterior walls, constructed from rammed earth, establish a strong and visually stunning contrast to the elegant, light-filled openings. This innovative approach allows the structure to seamlessly integrate with the natural slope of its surroundings, evoking the impression that it has been artfully engraved into the landscape itself.
