Europan 12 Amstetten

runner-up

Team point of view

Situated between Wien and Linz, Amstetten occupies a strategic position in the national transport network. The railway plays an important role in the city, but the railway land is isolated. The project creates a new urban landscape in harmony with the existing legacy, characterized by major landscape axes based on the existing natural or heritage elements. This will be complemented by a finer structure of road and waterway systems, which define the identity of the space. The remaining parts of the land have potential for changes in uses, appearances or programming, pending construction. This could then change their function in the development, depending on changes in urban and climatic conditions.
