"Stephan Jaklitsch's work reflects the fact that he finished his undergraduate studies in the waning days of postmodernism, just as a new generation of architects was rethinking and rediscovering the residual potential in modern architecture. While none of them predicted or proselytized for a reinvigorated International Style - the pristine technological dream of previous generations - Jaklitsch's modernism is both international and has style, having been grafted to a new global force of commerce and fashion. He has complimented his hard-edged but sumptuous global urban projects with more rustic vernacular projects - equally far flung - continuing the classical tradition of distinct architectural languages for the city and the landscape."
