Vintners and the Building Buzz
Tracing the WineArchitecture Phenomenon

Location: Architekturzentrum Wien - Podium
Panel Discussion: Wednesday 7 December 2005, 7pm
Tickets: Free entry!

Over the course of the last 20 years the functional demands for the creation of high-quality wine have changed. These changes have often rendered new buildings a necessity. Astonishingly, though, winemakers have increasingly been turning to famous architects with these commissions in the small communities between Ehrenhausen and Deutschkreuz instead of working with local building companies. The reasons behind this phenomenon are many, with the production and presentation of wine being subjected to a veritable building buzz.

A circle of architecture and wine experts traces the phenomenon of WineArchitecture and attempts to outline a trend for the future.

The Panel
  • Otto Kapfinger, architecture critic
  • Fred Loimer, vintner
  • Anton Mayerhofer, architect
  • Michael Thurner, Österreichische Weinmarketing GmbH (Austrian Wine Marketing Board)
  • Karin Tschavgova, architecture correspondent
  • Ute Watzlawick, Wine & Partners
    Moderated by: Christian Seiler, journalist

    Otto Kapfinger's guide to architecture in Burgenland is to be presented in the course of the discussion, providing comprehensive coverage of the building activity in this prospering region of Austria.
