“THE ROCK” is a brand new hospitality constructing designed for Radisson´s just lately launched way of life hospitality model, Radisson RED. The resort, which is the primary of its sort within the German-speaking area, could be discovered at each a bodily and social junction in Vienna’s 2nd district. The semi-public constructing homes 179 rooms, an occasion house, a publicly accessible rooftop bar, and terrace, a courtyard, a restaurant, and a fitness center.
The positioning is located in a well-visited space amongst a row of notable highlights alongside the Danube Channel. The design strategy positioned a robust give attention to public expression and communication, leading to a person form and identification. Architecturally, a complimentary rigidity exists between the facade’s common raster of enormous home windows and tectonic folding likened to that of a rock formation primarily based on numerous influencing parameters.
The folds comply with web site restrictions, allow gentle to succeed in neighboring constructions and the road, and visually provoke the constructing’s energetic interplay with the general public. This change is fostered by an nearly bodily connection to the Schottenring metro station, immediately in entrance of the resort.
From the road, one can see by means of the foyer to the courtyard due to the bottom flooring’s transparency, emphasizing the constructing’s public nature and social intent. This idea extends upwards from the courtyard into the rooftop backyard and terrace. The resort´s city, energetic surrounding is mirrored by the 24-meter-high mural within the courtyard, appearing like a visible anchor. The inside´s surfaces, supplies, and the hospitality group’s curated furnishings choice merge Radisson’s design pointers with Viennese tradition.
The glass home rooftop is a platform for additional public expression, forming a dialogue with the adjoining avenue, the river, and the town. A further “greenhouse” typology stands out as a transparent attraction amongst the regularity and consistency of the neighborhood’s residential buildings, all having comparable heights and traits.
Cantilevering barely over a row of home windows under, it clearly signifies an distinctive house aspiring to work together with the remainder of the town. The structure´s notion can also be transferred into the design of the highest flooring, the place a light-weight, floating textile ceiling, unfolding tent-like into the bar house, blurs the boundaries between indoors and outside.
The white, rhombus-shaped aluminum cladding, exactly folding across the edges, merges exterior partitions and the roof into one homogeneous quantity, emphasizing the unified, rock-like nature. Gold-bronze, barely mirrored home windows lengthen exterior of the facade, offering solar safety.
On the within, they develop into items of furnishings on their very own, having the peak of a bench and turning into “residing home windows,” speaking with close by individuals and buildings and inspiring remark. On this manner, even the home windows have a refined manner of connecting with exterior public house.
