Peripheriques Architectesas Architects

A former artisanal enterprise with a small production hall and adjoining service wing for administration and a company apartment was revitalized and converted for use as a studio + living space + production. The site is located on the outskirts of a village, surrounded exclusively by other artisanal business but directly adjacent to meadows and fields. Rather than tear down the not-very-attractive 1980s building, the architects opted to incorporate it into their new concept.

After winning the 2013 architectural competition, construction started in 2015, and the office tower was completed in 2017.The project developers were Wiener Stadtwerke Holding AG, and STC - Swiss Town Consult AG.The ORBI Tower is located in Vienna’s “TownTown”urban development zone on the fringes of the Prater local recreation area and the green axis of the Danube canal. It takes seven minutes to travel from the 115 m high tower to St. Stephen’s Square (Stephansplatz) by urban transport.

Workspaces with no hierarchies in harmony with the architecture’s transparencyA unique workplace, a vast extroverted space, whose architectural features open up to the outside through transparency and luminosity. A project that respects the complex’s industrial past while focusing on contemporary design through the concepts of sustainability and smart working.
