Under the motto \u201cSetting the course together\u201d, the co-housing project Gleis 21 was planned in a participatory manner with the future residents, from urban development to the socket outlet. The property is located in the center of the new urban development area \u00abLeben am Helmut Zilk Park\u00bb near the Vienna Central Station (\u201eHauptbahnhof Wien\u201c). The project and the cultural association of the same name want to contribute to the development of the district. Communication within and outward, is key at Gleis 21.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The co-housing project Gleis 21 builds on three major principles: \u201cliving in solidarity\u201d, \u201cindulging cleverly\u201d, and \u201ccreating with media\u201d. Solidarity is lived in a variety of ways, be it simple neighborhood services or a Solidarityfund for personal emergencies. Lived solidarity also includes certain appartements, that were planned in cooperation with Diakonie Fl\u00fcchtlingsdienst (a refugee aid organization), that can be given to refugees.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To help shape the cultural, social and media life in the newly developed quarter, a cooperation with Radio Orange, Okto TV and Stadkino Wien (cinema) was formed. The cultural Organization Gleis 21 is going to ensure a steady cultural program adapted to and in unison with its surroundings. A music-school on the lower floor rounds out the cultural scope of opportunity.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Extensive communal areas represent the focus of the communal aspect and offer space for common and individual use: from the communal kitchen to the library and sauna on the top floor to the workshop, studio and fitness room in the basement. The selection and details of community-spaces were made by the residents and form the center of communal aspects of the project.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The project was designed as a compact, zero-energy house (\u201eNiedrigstenergiehaus\u201c) in a wood-hybrid construction and was built in a resources saving way.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The individually planned housing-units on the upper four floors are accessed via an open north-west-facing arcade and are all equipped with private balconies. The neutral and flexible structure of the building enabled each unit to be planned individually in collaboration with its residents<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
