Pavilion in the Park

project Steirereck Restaurant, Vienna, Austria

 

Steirereck is one of the best restaurants in the world. Despite renovations being completed only a few years before, a comprehensive re-formulation of the restaurant became necessary.

The proximity to the park was of particular importance to the clients. The winning competition design takes the individual tables as its starting point. The special table arrangement, the large electric sash windows and the slightly reflective metal façade, which appears to be coated with dew, all give the guests in the new pavilion the sense of being outside and yet also at home. At the same time, they experience the highest levels of acoustic and thermal comfort.
