Planning study for the Schweizergarten garden centre

Heeresmuseumsstrasse 2-2a, 1030 Vienna

We are excited about the opportunity to push the boundaries of construction. Small projects in particular are an ideal basis for introducing innovative building materials into a certification process.

The planning study for the new gardener’s accommodation in the Schweizergarten focuses on sustainability and material-friendly construction. Inspired by the quality and ecological benefits of earthen construction, the building was designed as a reversible structure – this minimizes the impact on the environment and the structure can be returned to the natural cycle if necessary.

In addition, the building regulates the indoor climate in a natural way and conveys an earthy, warm aura.
The design reacts sensitively to the parking space and uses simple means to create a functional but atmospheric working environment. It does not form a hard boundary, but blends into the natural surroundings with open transitions and a well thought-out outdoor space concept.
