Urban Landmark for an innovative education center
The expansion of Austria's second largest school makes the
building visible in the street view for the first time. The overhanging
additional storey creates an exciting, spatially designed public space
which works as a link between school and city. Further additions and
conversions provide additional school space and give the school a
contemporary feeling.
An exciting color and lighting scheme, a number of areas for
open learning and new teaching methods and differentiated designed
outdoor spaces provide innovative learning experiences. Photovoltaic
panels which generate electricity, controlled classroom ventilation and a
thermally optimized facade complement the extensive renovation. Art
works by Stephen Mathewson, Fritz Panzer and Sonia Leimer increase the
identification with the school.
