Article source: Brenner + Kritzinger Architekten Kappl is a small village in the mountains of Tyrol in Austria. The main task of this project was to create an attractive village square between the existing church and a nearly 40 º inclined slope. The new buildings were thus situated as to form a U-shaped outside space with the church adding the southern closure.  Image Courtesy © Birgit Köll

Restraint was used in the design and building height of the new structure to respect the adjacent church.

The green flat roofs lend a harmonious and flowing transition to the north-facing slope.
