The new site combines the entire faculty of informatics, previously distributed on different buildings, in a unique structure. The department of communication science features seminar rooms and seven computer/research rooms at the Währingerstrasse 29. On the ground floor and in the two basement levels are located the library for informatics and communication science as part of the library for chemistry faculty.
The building at the Währingerstrasse fills a typical gap site, but operates as a L-form joint (with an internal service and supply core) around the courtyard. The reinterpretation of the bow window at the Währingerstrasse connects the different alignments of the surrounding buildings and a break at the upper level of different heights.
The focal point of the construction lies where the main entrance, accessible through an inviting hall, is located. From this entrance the lecture halls in the basement, the library, and the seminar rooms on the upper floors are reachable. As a result of this decision, the orientation in the building toward the different uses is optimized. The university library has its own internal access.
The focus of university planning lies in the construction of appropriate work and communication opportunities for students, scientists, and administration members such as suitable library and communication infrastructure. The new areas have a flexible design to adapt and expand for future demands. Additionally, systems and processes are set to reduce operating costs and increase sustainability.
Special attention was taken to the multifunctional service and communication spaces for students. The University of Vienna is continuing its project student space: the central target of this project is to shape the university “environment” in an attractive way, to optimize the spaces of learning and research, to increase the space of communication, and to offer an adequate infrastructure in seminar rooms and lecture halls.
