<strong>New</strong> <strong>build</strong><br />

“Kainzenbadstrasse<br />

South“<br />

Kainzenbadstrasse 13 - 23<br />

and 26 - 36<br />

Building in the heart of the Maikäfer<br />

Estate whilst preserving its character and<br />

green spaces with old trees was a challenge.<br />

Fortunately, the Lenz + Partner<br />

architecture firm had already gained<br />

considerable experience during the<br />

Kainzenbadstrasse North and Höhenstadter<br />

Strasse <strong>build</strong>s, and was able to<br />

apply this expertise to the Kainzenbadstrasse<br />

South project. The result was<br />

108 subsidised apartments, ranging<br />

from single tenancies to family-sized<br />

units.<br />

Once again, the <strong>build</strong>ings were invisibly<br />

connected by an underground garage.<br />

And again, the designers made plenty of<br />

use of light-coloured woods, adding<br />

large external stairways leading from the<br />

first storeys to the gardens. The <strong>build</strong>ings<br />

and grounds were completed in<br />

September 2002, forming a substantial<br />

part of the Maikäfer Estate’s green<br />

heartland.<br />
