SEG APARTMENT BLOCK REMISE

back



VIENNA, AUSTRIA (1994-2000)

The project establishes a counterpart to the conventional Vienna housing blocks. The closed building block is broken up and rearranged in an open and differentiated building volume. In order to keep the density of the building block the cut out volumes create a rooftop landscape. This creates open spaces, like air pockets in the structure, which provide for common spaces, public and semi-public spaces and private terraces and gardens. The majority of the apartments are maisonettes with a two story living room and a glass facade.
