Spittelau Viaducts Address Spittelauer Lände 1090 Vienna Austria . The project is part of a revitalization initiative undertaken by the city of Vienna for the Wiener Guertel, an over-dimensioned, ring-formed slice through the urban fabric. The site is formed via the culmination of densely overlapping infrastructural elements: the “Spittelauer Leande” is one of Vienna’s most highly traveled roadways; the Danube Canal connecting Germany to Hungary. The housing is built along the Donaukanal, over Otto Wagner’s elevated metro viaduct. photo: Bjorn Utpott . Project is not public! .

Gasometer City Address Guglgasse 6 1110 Vienna Austria http://www.wiener-gasometer.at/index.html.en . These 4 gas holders, known as gasometer were built in 1896 as part of the gasworks at Simmering. After they were closed down, the 4 historic towers were renovated, converted into apartments, shopping malls and offices and reopened in 2001. When they were built, the gasometers were the largest in Europe. They are listed by the country’s heritage ministry as outstanding examples of industrial architecture. The renovation goal was to reuse the external façades of the existing buildings, avoiding total demolition of the building and minimizing the generation of demolition waste. The gigantic size of this construction project is illustrated by the fact that Vienna's Giant Ferris Wheel would easily fit into each of the four 75-metre high gasometers. .

Vertically Landscaped Housing Address Hardtmuthgasse 68 A-1100 Vienna Austria . On a corner plot in Vienna, Geiswinkler & Geiswinkler Architekten built a compact block of 17 apartments. Balancing the high density of the project are the spacious communal amenities on the ground floor (workshop, hobby room, children?s room), the public roof garden and the private ?gardens? in front of every living room. In order to bring coherence to the large façade areas, including the curved soffits of the loggias, the architects opted for a corrugated aluminium sheeting that could be applied without seams. The result is powerful and homogeneous. But it?s an unconventional choice of material for a residential project where brick, wood or concrete tend to be the preferred option. That surprise effect is precisely what the architects were aiming for. In choosing corrugated aluminium they were also setting themselves the challenge of showing that a material they claim usually evokes negative associations can deliver an elegant building with a congenial atmosphere. .

Uniqa Tower Address Untere Donaustrasse 21-23 1020 Vienna Austria http://tower.uniqa.at/index_tow.php . Whereas in the past a head office might have been 'lit up' by means of illuminated logos, ads or spotlights, the advent of 'media façades' has greatly expanded the possibilities - not to everyone's delight, however, because when not careful the city can easily turn into a fairground where buildings vie for attention. So when Licht Kunst Licht were commissioned to make a lighting plan for the Uniqa Tower, they were determined to use light 'in an artistic and sophisticated manner that would be techically 'state-of-the-art'. They put 182.000 individually controllable RGB LED video pixels in the cavity of the building's double façade, enough pixels to turn the 75-metre high sculptural tower into one big, continuous screen. The artists group Mader Stublic Wiermann developed the artistic video "twists and turns" running on the video system that processes the video system processes 25 images per second, so the light play flows smoothly and makes the screen a 'second skin'. .

There are not just "service buildings", but structures that create a sense of identity. The strong lines of the compact cubic structures are enhanced by flush windows and anthracite-coloured cladding made of copper-titanium-zinc alloy. The very dark colour of the velvety metal sheets gives solid presence to the building, and slight surface irregularities add an element of liveliness. An important contrasting design feature is the large floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor. The clear run of glass up to the top line of the building creates a cut-out effect. The inset roll-up doors on the ground floor provide visual tension, as they are the only planes that are not flush with the exterior building wall. photo: Hertha Hurnaus . Project is public! . . .

Housing at Kaiserstrasse Address Kaiserstrasse 68 1070 Vienna Austria . This intervention involves an interesting compacting of the dense city since it takes over the traditional inner patio of the 19th urban development and considerably increases residential and population density in an already dense area. The authors of the work explain the goodness of the building, whose most debatable aspect is its outer façade. . Project is not public! . . . . .

LEE Residential Housing Address Leebgasse 46 A-1100 Vienna Austria . This is a housing block with an open plan and essentially organised shell: the living division of which can be freely chosen by the client. The orientation of the house can be decided by whoever uses it. Morning sun, afternoon sun and a new orientation are all possible. The service spaces are all compactly organised in the core, which makes room for an enormous bathroom. An elementary, comfortable window bench invites you to take a seat. This bench lies on the same level as the balcony. Sunlight streams in through the elevated timber balcony deep into the house. photo: Piotr Krajewski . Project is not public! . . . . .

Paltramplatz Residential Building Address Paltramplatz 7 1100 Vienna Austria . The appearance of the Paltramplatz Residential Building is that of a crisp-edged cube into the matte black surface of which an irregular relief pattern of ribbon windows and loggias have been embedded. These windows and loggias make the compact monolith seem like a cabinet with drawers that can be pulled out at will. The apartment building with its 22 units fills the gap in the heterogeneous fabric of its surroundings in an utterly natural and unspectacular way. Forming an exciting contrast to the static tranquillity of the basic shape of the building is the trapezoidal cantilevered, rotated-off-axis, dynamic roof construction. Here, holes have been made for illumination purposes. This perforated, polygonal shed roof seems to hover over the building, creating an original and distinctive closure. .

Wiener Postsparkasse Address Georg-Coch-Platz 2 1010 Vienna Austria . Representing Otto Wagner's first move away from Art Nouveau and Neoclassicism, the Wiener Postsparkasse (Austrian Postal Savings Bank) is regarded as an important early work of modern architecture. The building occupies an entire city block, next to the Ringstrasse boulevard. The bank's façade obviously alludes to classicism. Wagner's key idea was to celebrate modern materials by developing new forms. The entire façade is covered with square marble plates. These are attached to the main structure by aluminum rivets or bolts, forming a pattern. Inside, the main hall is designed like an atrium, with a large glass skylight allowing natural light to enter the heart of the building at all times. photo: Michiel van Loon . Project is public! .

Branch Bank Building Address Favoritenstraße 118 1100 Vienna Austria . The functional interior space of the Branch Bank Building of the Z-Bank in Vienna can be read from outside. The interacting, half-storey displaced floors are summarized in one single room, which connects the out-and-inside with its overhanging 'mouth'. Veins of movement and rest areas are determing the general use. The municipal use in the upper floors is elevated - 'the house with the kink'. The shape of the roof is adding up to the whole of the building and links the sky to the ground. Concrete, steel and metal are the dominating materials. Each material appears in the way it was manufactured. Construction and technical installations are displayed open. All of these architectural elements are part of the design, linked to the whole appearance of the building and also to the neighbourhood. The interaction of these parts is resulting in the complex unity of this kind of architecture (text from website architect). . Project is public! . . . . . .

Red Room Address Stubenring 20 1010 Vienna Austria http://www.red-room.at/ . Continuing its previous work for the Comida Restaurant in Vienna, Söhne & Partners transformed the basement of the eatery into a modestly decorated space-age club: the Red Room. Cloaked entirely in one shade of red velvet, Red Room's walls, ceiling and furniture merge into one another, connecting the different areas and providing a stark contrast to the club's polished white flooring and several other white features, including the bar and DJ deck. Influenced by the 1968 science-fiction film 2001: A Space Odyssey, a classic co-written and directed by Stanley Kubrick, the interior radiates an air of calmness enhanced by a sense of sheer lightness. Söhne & Partner clad nearly all surfaces of the club in velvet to add character to the interior design. Adding a dimension of flexibility to the seating arrangement, red poufs scattered liberally throughout the club float like globules of blood on the translucent grid of white glass. photo: Alexander Koller .

Busgarage Wiener Linien Address Katharina-Scheiter-Gasse 6 1210 Vienna Austria . The bus garage consists of several halls for repair and maintenance work as well as for parking the buses that run on liquid gas. The halls are completed by an administrative building. Order and organisation of all parts of the structure are determined by the natural order of vehicles entering the garage, being checked, refuelled, maintained and parked before again leaving. The administrative structure to the north serves as linking element and spine for the two main halls (maintenance and parking). In order to guarantee optimal natural illumination without any overheating in summer, offices and staff rooms in the administrative area face north. The wardrobes are placed alongside the wall separating the building from the maintenance and parking hall. The building is naturally illuminated and ventilated by incised court yards on the first floor, generously providing the corridors inside with light and air. photo: Paul Ott .

Neu 31 Address Neuwaldegger Strasse 31 1170 Vienna Austria . The concept of the overlapping spatial structure, open to the outside as well as inside, with symbiotically conjoined residential and office accommodation units is not merely a lip service here, it runs throughout all parts of the building - the spatial solution appeared that beneficial to the architects to occupy it by themselves. The concept was to create a four-level diaphanous structure, which integrates all functions of living and working and yet offers enough privacy. All rooms and apartments are interlaced into each other and open not only to the outside but to the inside as well. This radically breaks with the classical scheme of a cube, which is bordered by four walls. photo: Hertha Hurnaus . Project is not public! . . . . .
