“THE ROCK” is a brand new hospitality constructing designed for Radisson´s just lately launched life-style hospitality model, Radisson RED. The resort, which is the primary of its type within the German-speaking area, may be discovered at each a bodily and social junction in Vienna’s 2nd district. The semi-public constructing homes 179 rooms, an occasion area, a publicly accessible rooftop bar, and terrace, a courtyard, a restaurant, and a gymnasium.
The location is located in a well-visited space amongst a row of notable highlights alongside the Danube Channel. The design strategy positioned a powerful give attention to public expression and communication, leading to a person form and identification. Architecturally, a complimentary pressure exists between the facade’s common raster of huge home windows and tectonic folding likened to that of a rock formation primarily based on numerous influencing parameters.
The folds observe website restrictions, allow gentle to succeed in neighboring buildings and the road, and visually provoke the constructing’s full of life interplay with the general public. This alternate is fostered by an virtually bodily connection to the Schottenring metro station, instantly in entrance of the resort.

Cantilevering barely over a row of home windows beneath, it clearly signifies an distinctive area aspiring to work together with the remainder of town. The structure´s notion can also be transferred into the design of the highest ground, the place a light-weight, floating textile ceiling, unfolding tent-like into the bar area, 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 outdoors of the facade, offering solar safety.
On the within, they turn out to be items of furnishings on their very own, having the peak of a bench and changing into “residing home windows,” speaking with close by individuals and buildings and inspiring statement. On this method, even the home windows have a refined method of connecting with exterior public area.
