<strong>The</strong> master plan describes the spatial and functional<br />

structure of the future Urban Lakeside. What interests me<br />

most, though, is to complement this plan with the emotionally<br />

accessible, communicable image of an urban development<br />

project that is not only big but genuinely grand<br />

as well. <strong>The</strong> Urban Lakeside brand inspires us as a team,<br />

defines a direction for development strategies and actors<br />

in the fields of politics and administration and provides<br />

support in communicating with investors, developers and<br />

future users. Although <strong>aspern</strong> Vienna’s Urban Lakeside is<br />

young, it has already become a part of people’s lives.<br />

We all may be proud of this result – work + balance!<br />

Thomas Hotko<br />

Project leader at Brainds (formerly: Buero 16)<br />

When we embarked on our quest to develop a new<br />

marketing strategy for the Urban Lakeside in 2007, there<br />

were hundreds of questions and even more stakeholders<br />

who had no conception of the new city quarter. “Aspern?<br />

Aspern airfield? Where is that?” It was our remit to generate<br />

clear-cut images and establish the new city quarter<br />

in the minds of people. Today the Urban Lakeside has<br />

truly arrived in Vienna + in Europe. We are very proud to<br />

be part of a team that has invested so much analytic spirit<br />

+ lifeblood, brainpower + joy. I want to thank the entire<br />

team of Wien 3420 AG and my own team at Brainds.<br />

<strong>aspern</strong> is a special opportunity to create a city – let’s<br />

make it something truly beautiful and livable!<br />
