HOUSING FOR ALL GENERATIONS
The new building is the missing mosaic stone in Viennas development area Sonnwendviertel. It is the beginning and transition to Helmut Zilk Park. High building density and a wide range of uses are the central challenges for this ecologically and economically viable building.
Urban development and user friendliness
RLP solves the problem of high density intelligently: The flanks of the building block remain lower, the number of floors in the area at Helmut Zilk Park is increased. The tanning of the northern neighboring buildings is thus improved. On the south west side, more light brightens the courtyard. The 30-meter-high component at the Helmut-Zilk-Park is also a first-rate landmark.
Living in the city
The special feature of the residential housing complex is the integration of almost all age groups. In addition to classic apartments and room-optimized smart apartments, the three-storey senior citizens' house with 81 rooms and the even a kindergarden with 4 groups can be found. In addition, there are also residential communities for alone educators and assisted living. A prerequisite for this diversity is the cost-effectiveness of the construction method. RLP has structured the house according to the principle of outer wall-middle wall range. Virtually any change, such as merging or expanding apartments, can be carried out without great economic effort. In addition, the residential house offers high quality outdoor areas with terraces, flat roofs, loggias and balconies. The house "works" like a city with ways and places, privacy and the public.
Architecture
Without a doubt, the building complex is a really big building volume. The precise planning of RLP prevents any kind of monotony. Structure of the heights, prominent corners and the swinging out of the terraces lead to a shapely ensemble. Architecture does a lot and is not expensive. Also an inexpensive means to accent a house is the color. A chasing apricot has a positive effect at all seasons.
