Spallartgasse BP 4

We, as those responsible for the development plan, have positioned ourselves in the "middle" of the entire area as architects with a subsidized and a privately financed project on two neighboring building sites. This consciously strategic setting was a decision in which, on the one hand, the parallel experience, funded and freely financed, under the same framework conditions, and on the other hand, the most difficult links of the overall project on the site had to be solved.

The building site is situated at the Spallartgasse just opposite the interface of an existing residential building und the Graphic secondary school f Vienna.
In order to keep Spallartgasse free from further traffic loads as calmly as possible, the exit to the collective garage was largely moved to the west in the direction of Leyserstraße.
Immediately to the east, following the garage entrance and exit, a passage was laid for direct route guidance into the public recreation area.

The appearance of the building shows that living here in all its heterogeneous diversity and mix is self-evident. All components that are required to create an “intelligent shell” for living (balconies, loggias, windows, sun protection, etc.) are appropriate, adequate, permanent and maintenance-free, so something to touch.

In order to realize living in the "park", it is necessary to consider the lighting conditions (winter sun lying low without leaves, summer sun standing up in the shade under the canopy): living in the area of ​​the tree trunks, living in the area of ​​the tree tops, living above the trees with View. These local and spatial conditions require adaptation and compensation of the lighting conditions according to these zones. Larger exposure areas at the bottom, decreasing towards the top.
