Living in the park
The ‘Floriette’ residential complex is located in the middle of a 12,000 square metre private park in Hietzing. We revitalised and added storeys to the Wilhelminian-style former nursing school and built three new urban villas. The buildings are loosely arranged to create large open spaces and the old trees have been protected.
The original contours of the elongated old building were retained and supplemented by an additional, slightly recessed residential storey. The perforated end made of anodised aluminium now forms an exciting contrast to the painstakingly restored historic façade of the old building.
The all-round railing of the three urban villas is also made of anodised aluminium and creates a visual relationship to the roof structure of the old building. Old and new are thus combined to form a harmonious ensemble.
The townhouse
With its high rooms between 3.30 and 3.60 meters, the townhouse offers the typical flair of an historic building. The entire living space, including the terrace or balcony, is on one level. The apartments on the top floor, with a room height of up to 2.80 meters, have no sloping ceilings.
The city villas
The three cubic solitaires are twisted in relation to each other to ensure sufficient distance and privacy. This avoids face-to-face situations and all residents can enjoy an unobstructed view of the park. The surrounding verandas, together with patios and private gardens in front, create a pleasant buffer between private areas and the shared park.
The park
Landscape designer Kieran Fraser has created an exciting 12,000 m² park with meadows, paths, trees and flowerbeds as well as various recreational zones. The paths not only lead from villa to villa, but also to the secret garden, the ornamental garden with water feature or the community area with BBQ spot.
