Ready to Assemble The house as a high-quality finished product, deliverable in variations from the conveyor belt and most simply assembled – a dream that has remained to be cherished by reformers of architecture, from Konrad Wachsmann/Walter Gropius and the Case Study Houses up to Philippe Starck and current lifestyle supplies. In Austria, every fourth single-family house is set up today as a prefab, with some 99% being built along the popular clichés attached to a "Gentian House" or "miniature villas" lacking any particular spatial or energetic quality. The reasons were rather coincidental for MARTERERMOOSMANN to start the umpteenth attempt in this profession, and in Vienna of all places. For one, the town's building regulations have undergone quite sensational innovations, permitting multi-storey residential dwellings to be built of wood only since recently. Another reason dates back four years – the so-called Teahouse in the Viennese vineyards with which Georg Marterer abruptly became known. Due to its inaccessible location, it was conceived as a precast construction in which no part could weigh more than 50kg, since all materials had to be transported to the site over a narrow footpath and assembled with the simplest of tools, without a crane. Moreover, this module was intended to be set such that subsequent replacements, e.g. of individual façade elements, would be carried out in a similarly easy way. Marterer himself had already set up small ephemerous constructions, and now detailed the Teahouse with a precision engineer's care. The self-assembling systematics of a well-known Scandinavian furniture center was elevated to a Zen atmosphere without losing its practicability. MartererMoosmann have further developed this system from metal into frame construction and offer a pallet of products at surprisingly low prices, a minimal 50m2 variant on two floors as well as large-scale, three-storey development structures.
