Jörg Streli

Jörg Streli (26 March 1940 – 13 February 2019)[1] was an Austrian architect and academic teacher at the Innsbruck University.

With two colleagues, as the firm Heinz & Mathoi & Streli, he built private homes in the alpine landscape of Tyrol, schools, offices and public buildings, among others.

He departed from his love of nature and of traditional building in rural landscape, with wood as a preferred material, but changed toward urban environments.

[7] The joint extension of the University Hospital in Innsbruck, created by adding a technical and a clinical floor for gynecology and neurology on top, built from 2006 to 2008, was nominated for the award of the Fundació Mies van der Rohe in 2009.

[3] Works by Streli were part of the exhibition Autochtone Architektur in Tirol presenting the architecture of Tyrol with respect for the alpine landscape, in Munich in 1994.
