The studio building on construction site C21 near Vienna Central Station breaks down the traditional boundaries between ‘work’ and ‘home,’ providing a flexible framework for various living arrangements and uses, which are shaped and defined by the occupants themselves.
We created and implemented an energy concept for the building using a coupled, completely non-fossil heating and cooling system with highly efficient heat pumps and seasonally balanced geothermal probe fields. A dynamic simulation of underground heat transfer was used to enhance the design of the geothermal probe field. In addition, a building energy modelling was also used to optimise and verify the thermal comfort of the surface heating and cooling systems. We also carried out the water rights application and supported the building physics planning.
Since its commissioning, the project has been continuously monitored for energy performance, system operation, and indoor comfort.
