I oA / Institut für Architektur
studio
díazmoreno garcíagrinda dealt with the Westbahnhof area as part of the architectural design course in the 2022/2023 academic
year.
The development of the program and
the processing during the two semesters with nuanced approaches and goals took place in coordination and collaboration with
the Vienna City Planning Department. The project was also accompanied by numerous external experts who could bring in different
perspectives onto the site.
The variety of different aspects of this area have already played
a central role in the methodological approach. The task was not primarily issued with the aim of developing a quasi-finished
project.
Rather, the students should work on developing a kind of urban, architectural language
for the area under the guidance and support of the professors and the studio team.
This framework
is reflected in the fact that the project topic is entitled as: “A Glossary of Possible Urban Futures for Westbahnhof”.
Similar to the sequence of terms in a dictionary, the different aspects were each developed under a word to be defined.
The exhibition in the Stadtraum Mitte 15 now brings an overall view of this complexity in a compressed way that has been specially
tailored to this space.
A small publication about the work will also be
published.
