Rooftop Remodeling Falkestrasse

The rooftop remodeling Falkestrasse located in Vienna, Austria, is a Coop Himmelb(l)au architectural project.

[1] Architizer, About Coop Himmelblau, March 2012[2] The remodelling is an edition to a pre-existing traditional Viennese building.

[5] The extension consists of a 90 m2 conference room beneath the major wing along with additional offices and reception further into the roof space.

[8] Speaking on the building, "We just interpreted a new corner solution... it was one of the first deconstructivist architecture (sic) in the world" - Wolf D. Prix[9] "The remodelling of this rooftop was especially difficult.

And we said "Thank you very much", because art is not subject to the rules of the building code - Wolf D. Prix[10] The rooftop extension has been described by architectural theorist Charles Jencks as “a riotous melange of twisted and warped shapes which resembles a dead pterodactyl that has crash-landed on the roof”.
