A new community center with a multipurpose hall, a small inn and village square, which contributes to the revitalization of the village center as a social and communal meeting place, emerged in the rural community of Steinberg am Rofan. Bernardo Bader, who won the competition tendered on the basis of a public participation process, designed a compact saddle roof house in larch wood, which reacts empathetically to the village’s spatial situation.

During the 1980s, Hotel Windegg was reconstructed and extended in a contemporary and landscape related manner by the architect Hans Peter Petri. After changing hands, the hotel was converted for a second time, whereby the bedroom wing and the striking staircase tower remained in place. Heinz-Mathoi-Streli constructed a new three-storey building directly next to the hotel. This building, with its vertical larch-wood façade, is clearly different from the original white building.
