Ulrike Tinnacher

The oldest building of the winery LacknerTinnacher, whose cellars were used as tasting and storage rooms, no longer met the requirements of the winemaker. The credo of the wines - clear, elegant and timeless - had to be translated into an adequate architectural language and the interplay of sales, office, storage and archive had to be optimized in its functions. The wine cellar is located under a typical south styrian farmhouse, which originally, besides the production of wine, also served as a living space. While the cellar rooms are buried deep into the slope of the hill range towards the east, the lower floor opens towards the west, out of the earth realm over the wine slopes of the steinbach valley. In the center of the newly organized cellar lies the sales and tasting area, which is accessed via a central entrance in the west façade. The front part of the L-shaped customer area is furnished with mobile theme trolleys, which are always arranged differently, allowing a flexible use of this zone. Further inside the Steinbachkeller, the focus is entirely on wine. At the long wine counter, focused light from above draws attention to the product in the glass. The backbone of the counter is a narrow, equally long wine cooler that also serves as a water point. The petrol-colored wall color along this piece of furniture was continued as a ceiling soffit all the way to the counter, creating a protective, atmospheric space for tasters and visitors.
