Brunnenstrasse 9, Gallery and Atelier Building
Brandlhuber+
The gallery and ateliers at Brunnenstrasse 9 are built on the foundations of a ruin, the result of a bad investment in the 1990’s. This made the plot unattractive for corporate investors who were purchasing empty lots at the time. This opened up an opportunity for the architect, both investor and constructor, to buy the land for the current cost minus the demolition expenses.
When the plot was purchased in 2007, only a couple of walls and parts of the basement ceiling remained, alongside the elevator shaft and an entrance passage. Instead of removing this original structure, it was included and developed further in the new design.
