- PROJECT YEAR: 2011

THE DESIGN CONCEPT OF THE BUILDING IS STRIKING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN

OUTSIDE AND INSIDE ENVIRONMENT WITH THE MAXIMUM TRANSPARENCY AND
OPENNESS THAT COULD BE ACHIEVED. THE EXTERIOR FAÇADE WAS DESIGNED TO
FOLLOW A SIMPLE PERPENDICULAR GRID FORMED OF A MIXTURE BETWEEN SHADING
DEVICES, WINDOWS AND GLASS PANELS.
> LOCATION ANALYSIS

DUE TO THIS LOCATION ALSO THE

DESIGNER FACED A CHALLENGE
IN DESIGN AS THE BUILDING IT
LOCATED BETWEEN TWO
BUILDINGS – SKIN TO SKIN –
WHICH ALSO GAVE HIM
INSPIRATION TO USE THE
MODERN DESIGN TO MAKE A
CONTRAST WITH THE
SURROUNDING CLASSIC
BUILDINGS,

- THE BUILDING IS LOCATED WITHIN A RESIDENTIAL BUILDING

AREA MIXED WITH GREEN AREA
- THE ONLY THING THAT SURROUNDS THE NEW SCHOOL
BUILDING IN EMBELGASSE IN VIENNA'S 5TH DISTRICT IS THE
CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE BLOCK AND SOME PUBLIC AREAS
LIKE MOSQUE AND SOME COMMERCIAL SHOPS.

SURROUNDINGS:-

AS SHOWN IN GRAPH, VIENNA CLIMATE MARKED BY WARMNESS, MARKET MOSQUE CAFE RESTAURANT
PRECIPITATION & MUGGY FOR MOST TIME OF YEAR AND THESE FACTORS
PLAYED THE MAIN ROLE IN FAÇADE DESIGN AND MATERIALS CHOICE. THIS HELPED IN FACILTATING IN DESTRICT CIRCULATION.

DESIGN KEY :- 
DEMONSTRATES CLOSENESS TO CITIZENS, OPENNESS,
1. 3 LAYERS REFLECTIVE GLASS PANELS
AND TRANSPARENCE.
2. ALUMINIUM
3. ALUMINIUM CLADDING SHEETS
- DUE TO VIENNA’S CLIMATE OBSERVATION
4. PRECAST CONCRETE UNITS
- SINCE IT IS LOCATED BETWEEN TWO BUILDINGS
SO THE DESIGNER PREFERRED TO MAKE IT
TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE.

THANKS TO THE LARGE REFLECTIVE GLASS SURFACE

USED FOR THE MAIN FAÇADE AND THE DOUBLE FLOOR
LOBBY 🡪 BOTH HELPED IN CONNECTION THE INSIDE
ENVIRONMENT WITH OUTSIDE AND REFLECT THE
SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT (SKY & STREETS)
SHOWING THE BUILDING TO BE TRANSPARENT .
> ANALYSIS OF INTERIOR SPACES ORGANIZATION

BETWEEN THE STANDARD ORGANIZATION PATTERNS THE DESIGNER CHOSE THE PERPENDICULAR
GRID PATTERN TO FOLLOW IN INTERIOR SPACES ORGANIZATION TO MAXIMIZE THE USABLE SPACES
AND PROVIDE THE NEEDED CALM AND INSPIRE ENVIRONMENT FOR USERS.
ALTHOUGH, HE USE THE ACUTE ANGLE TO ACHIEVE THE MAXIMUM USE OF THE EXTERIOR GREEN AREA

WITH THIS SPACES ORGANIZATION, THE DESIGNER HELPED IN PROMOTING

 > CONCLUSION
TRANSPARENT ADMINISTRATION!

CONCEPT DESCRIPTION CAN BE ONE WORD OR A

SHORT SENTENCE BUT TO CREATE AN
IMPRESSIVE DESIGN THERE IS MORE TO TAKE IN
CONSIDERATION FOR BEST RESULTS,

IN MY OPINION;
THE DESIGNER CREATED A GOOD CONNECTION
BETWEEN INNER & OUTER ENVIRONMENTS. I LIKE
HIS CHOICE OF MODERN FACADES AND DESIGN
TO MAKE A CONTRAST WITH THE SURROUNDING
OLD DESIGNED BUILDINGS.

ALTHOUGH,
I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER IF HE HAD
PROVIDED MORE OPENINGS IN THE HIGHER
FLOORS INSTEAD OF ENCLOSED TYPICAL FLOOR
PLANS, TO HELP IN VENTILATION AND
LIGHTNING.

BESIDE,
I WOULD PREFER IF HE DESIGNED AN ICONIC
ROOF OR AT LEAST DIFFERENT IN SHAPE SO IT
MAKE IT EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO FIND IT WITHIN
THIS DISTRICT THROUGH VARIOUS METHODS.
