163 subsidized residential units with 100% climate-neutral energy system

Eight houses with various heights form a small-scale structure on the site. Open passages between the buildings connect the complex to the neighborhood. The housing estate offers diverse, affordable and flexible living for all generations and different lifestyle. Furthermore, the integration of social institutions (assisted living in community for teenagers with disabilities and apartments of the Vienna’s women’s refuges) adds to the multifaceted offering of housing. Two communal rooms, three roof gardens, artistically activated passages and a park strengthen neighbourly interactions. The residential complex is built in a modular construction method, which makes it possible to offer adaptable floor plans for changing living conditions. Energy is supplied entirely from a renewable, 100% climate-neutral energy system.
