Inventus Engineering

A new two-story building with modern office, laboratory and workshop space was built in Sankt Anton im Montafon for a small company in the mechatronics sector. The new company building with a usable area of ​​approx. 2000 sqft is located on a spacious hillside plot with the possibility of expansion. It fits harmoniously into the surrounding area with only minimal changes to the terrain. The centrally located staircase leads from the laboratory on the ground floor to the upper floor with an open office and meeting rooms. A so-called drop shaft for various experiments could be adapted for an elevator. 

The concrete gable roof's design language is consistent with the surrounding buildings and the architectural style common in Montafon. The compact concrete building with a ventilated facade on the upper floor is in danger zone 2 and is situated on the sloped site and structurally in accordance with the protection regulations, since it is in an avalanche prone area. Thanks to the vertical structure of the facade elements, a circumferential glass strip as a horizontal caesura and a massive plastered base, the new building fits perfectly into the existing townscape in terms of design, color and material.
