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.

The founders architects, that lead this big professional team are Jakob Dunkl, Gerd Erhartt and Peter Sappj. In 2004 the also founder architect Michael Zinner, moved to another city and changed his professional focus to teach architecture. Helmut Ritchter, contemporary architect from Austria, was a big influence for the professional life over at Querdraft, and they show admiration and respect for everything they learned with him.
