A Wine Cellar in an Open Space: Repurposed Brewery by Chybik + Kristof
Round shapes stacked high - a sculpture of black wood in a whitewashed space. The jutting plinths of the sculpture, where the tables are located, are connected by stairways. The details convey the same sense of space that reigns in traditional wine cellars of South Moravia, although guests sit in the old technical room of a brewery.

Healed Wounds: Conversion and Expansion of an Old Hospital in Meursault

Builder: Gemeinde Meursault
Architecture: Jung Architekten & Simon Buri (heritage architect)
