Residential building 1211 Vienna

LEO 21 Residential building
1211 Vienna

The developers GPA-WBV and WVG joined forces and cooperated with three teams of architects in order to design this city block within the quarter Leopoldau. The new construction along a highly frequented main street forms a transition between continuous urban fabric from the period of promoterism and a sparse, wide commercial area. This transition is depicted in our building, as social housing is stacked on top of a commercial base, which accommodates shops of daily consumers’ needs.
In order to optimally limit noise pollution arising from the main street, re-vegetated access balconies run along the main street. The flats are set back from the street and oriented towards the quiet, green inner courtyard.
