Heidi Horten Collection / the next ENTERprise Architects

October 30, 2022 Luciana Pejić 0

The new museum for the prestigious collection assembled by Heidi Goëss-Horten, who passed away in June 2022, is situated in the late 19th-century Hanuschhof, which is centrally located between the Vienna State Opera, the Albertina, and the Burggarten. Realized in line with the design by the well-known Viennese architectural office the next ENTERprise Architects, the museum opens itself up to visitors as a delicately balanced ensemble of old and new, with a landscaped museum forecourt and sculpture garden. The façade and the side wings of the former archducal chancellery were retained, while the central element was completely gutted so that its spatial potential could be exploited to create a museum for the 21st century. The result is a platform for art derived from the interplay between dimensions, perspectives, and spatial circulation.

80 Collins Commercial Building / Woods Bagot

October 29, 2022 Bianca Valentina Roșescu 0

The intimacy of density is distilled in 80 Collins—the first mixed-use city block introduced to the top-end of Collins Street in over two decades. There are four parts —a new commercial tower, a hotel, an existing commercial tower renovation, and a podium base linking the entire block. It’s the legacy of the renowned heritage-listed Nauru House (North Tower) that was the catalyst for the design approach. Yet, for the new South Tower to hold its own against the likes of 101 Collins, 120 Collins, and Collins Place—differentiation was key.
