Clínica Ismael Oria / mar macías atelier

May 29, 2024 Pilar Caballero 0

From the project assignment, I remember clearly how Ismael and Cristina eagerly shared their dream of building a new clinic with me, the initial meetings, the discussions we had about the program, and their concern about the irregularity of the plot. But what I have remembered most throughout the process are the words they repeated to me, which define what motivated them to embark on this project: “to give their patients and their team a better space; a unique and welcoming space.”

Primary and Secondary School Leopold Kohr-Straße / Franz&Sue

May 29, 2024 Anna Dumitru 0

Viennese call the districts north of the Danube “Transdanubia.” What sounds like a world far removed from contemporary urbanity is in fact a budding neighbourhood with bustling construction activity. Our primary and secondary school on Leopold-Kohr-Straße in Kagran, situated between a business park, recent housing estates, and the Ostbahn railway, sets a new anchor point in the district’s urban development. With its lively forecourt and play and sports areas, which can also be used by local residents, the school adds a new quality to the neighborhood. Spacious, covered terraces transform the façade into a vertical garden and articulate important spaces for learning and leisure, which can be used all year round.
