Streckhof with Distillery in Burgenland

 - Peter Popp

A "Streckhof" is an agricultural building form commonly found in southern Burgenland, Austria, and other areas of Europe. In the community of Weingraben, with its 350 inhabitants, Juri Troy Architects have extended a well preserved ensemble - comprising a main house facing the road and a number of ancillary buildings lined up behind each other - with a dwelling house for a young family that lives in Vienna. The new structure, used at weekends and for holidays, was created on a site owned by the family and circumspectly extends the traditional structures.
