Tanner House / Bauatelier Metzler

Nestled in its hillside location with breathtaking views over Lake Constance and Reichenau Island, this typical 1970's building was in desperate need of rehabilitation regarding current energy standards. The new owner and developer Thomas Tanner saw potential in its strong and rough form, reminiscent of architecture during this time. From a sustainability perspective, the large amount of grey energy already built into the existing structure speaks for rehabilitation rather than demolition.
