The competition “Seestadt Aspern 2030” was carried out in cooperation between ARE Austrian Real Estate GmbH, the Institute for Buildings and Energy at TU Graz and the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Seestadt Aspern in Vienna is one of the largest urban development areas in Europe in the 22nd district. High-quality living space and workplaces are being created at this location. A multi-stage development process gave the students the opportunity to design the construction sites J6 and F7 as part of their courses. The above-mentioned construction sites are two real construction projects.
Project Building Site J6 Aspern:
The construction field J6 is located in the southeastern part of the Seestadt Aspern. Depending on the course attended, the competition entries should deal with “Renewable Aesthetics” or environmental certifications (e.g. platinum level) and try to meet the required criteria. In the process, a mixed-use building ensemble was designed.
Project Building Site F7 Aspern:
Baufeld F7 is centrally located in the Seestadt Aspern. The main focus of the courses in the summer semester the topic “Outdoor Comfort and Microclimate.”
