The area on the southern outskirts of Vienna is undergoing a transformation – the old commercial buildings are being replaced by a new residential neighbourhood, for which we developed the master plan.
The Eschenpark project consists of two residential buildings with a total of 72 two- to four-room flats. The slender linear development of the four-storey buildings responds to the elongated, narrow plot. The inner courtyard opens onto a spacious green area. A forecourt, protected by the projecting upper floors, defines the main access to the residential complex and provides an inviting entrance.
The externally visible vertical bulkheads and horizontal slabs as well as the recessed loggias and cantilevered balconies accentuate the façade. The ground-floor flats have private gardens and terraces that are slightly elevated from the public courtyard. On the upper floors, spacious loggias and balconies extend the living space outwards and offer attractive views of the varied green spaces that form the centre of the residential complex.
