Clinic Ottakring

Vienna, Austria

On a four-story base, which houses the functional areas of the clinic, six structures are arranged radially in a comb-like pattern, connected in pairs by links and accommodating the ward sections. The technical floor situated between the base and the comb functions as a joint between the two functional areas. The height and length development of the clinic’s base reflect those of the historic city pattern.

A continuous main corridor along the curved base serves as the access backbone. The front of the central clinic, which runs in a gentle curve along Montleartstraße, spans a forecourt of varying depth, leading to the entrance hall situated at the curve’s apex. The alignment of the curve follows the axes of the historical hospital to the south and curves northwards towards the historic structure of the 16th district.
