G13 – Umbau Wohnhäuser Gallgasse, Austria

Light, air, and green views all around define the ambience of an apartment estate in Gallgasse in Vienna’s 13th district. On a park-like site, AllesWirdGut transformed an ensemble of existing older spaces, last refurbished and reshaped in the 1980s, into modern living spaces.

The challenge consisted in fitting modern apartment floor plans into these heterogeneous structures while preserving as much of them as possible. The result is four lively built volumes that accommodate 46 high-quality condominiums.

Most of the apartments could be reconfigured so as to have dual aspect, which made for open, well-lit spaces. Additional daylight was brought in by enlarging window areas and by using French windows.

In addition to the community-used park with its old trees, large terrace, pergola, outdoor kitchen, small children’s playground, each apartment has its own private outdoor areas. Own gardens with terraces and generous balconies bring the surrounding verdure to the interior and offer pleasant views of trees like ginkgo and yew.
