New Hotel Topazz demonstrates landmark architecture in the historic heart of Vienna

New Hotel Topazz looks to its historic location while being constructed with empathy for its surroundings and Vienna's future in mind. Surrounded by historical buildings, it is the first green upscale hotel in the city centre. Its resource-saving energy concept uses advanced technology to generate low operating cost resources. But the sustainable approach does not end there, throughout the hotel high-quality green materials have been used for building and interior design....http://www.worldarchitecturenews.com/index.php?fuseaction=wanappln.projectview&upload_id=19778

Neustiftgasse 18, PART III

Project "Artspace" (Behf Architects)

BEHF Architects blurs the line between inside and outside to connect an arts shelter with nature
An age-old alliance between art and the inherent beauty that exists in nature has been a source of inspiration for BEHF Architects when designing the ARTSPACE. The centre of the concept is an arts depot nestled smoothly into a lush greenery on top of an existing residential building facing an inner courtyard.
The starting point for the design has been to convert the conventionally built existing space into the arts depot and amplify its connection with the surroundings through the use of materials. By exploring the conflict between openness and enclosure, the architects have developed a design strategy that blurs the traditional boundaries between inside and outside.

Project: Extension
Address: Ottakringer Straße 132, 16th district
Use: residential
Status: completed 2019
Given how space is a premium, I'm okay with extensions of older one or two story buildings but they could at least be tasteful about it. Why on earth is the facade different in the middle of the build-on? The color is also slightly lighter on top than it is on the bottom and that balcony clashes horrendously as do the dormers. Who the hell approves this? :eek:hno:
