Querkraft shows a conceptual strength since the creation of the name until the last doodle at the sketch board. Since the foundation of the firm Jakob Dunkl, Gerd Erhartt and Peter Sappj manage this office and work with great projects in an architecture office that is currently considered the strongest in Vienna.

querkraft.at
Querkraft was founded in 1998 by four young architects graduated at the Technical University of Vienna that decided to work together. The name "querkraft" (sideways strength), is powerful and carries many different meanings for an office that counts with three architects and their teams, which are considered the strongest from all studios in Vienna. All of this quality can be noticed at their projects, from their first residential projects and alterations, to their most recent work.
