Information And Formation

The first book dedicated to the work of LAAC, an inventive Austrian architecture studio.

This book features the work of the Innsbruck-based architecture studio LAAC. Since 2012, this leading Austrian firm has developed and explored innovative architectural responses to contemporary urban and landscape challenges. This work is done in collaboration with a network of architects, artists, graphic designers, and experts from other disciplines. In addition to public buildings for culture, education, and sports, commercial buildings, and industrial structures, LAAC has a particular focus on landscape and public space designs.

Information and Formation documents ten designs and projects in Innsbruck and other parts of the Austrian federal state of Tyrol, Vienna, and Venice through detailed photographs, plans, visualizations, and texts. Essays by international authors and a complete catalog of LAAC’s work to date round out this detailed first book about the studio.
