The telescopic of the competition was the urban revitalization and definition of the Master Plan in the zone Neue Copa Cagrana defining an urban proposal and the relationship of this part of the municipality with the river. We were selected withal with other 8 teams, including renowned firms such as Dominique Perrault, AZPML, or West 8. The context: Donau City, Vienna The study zone is located next to Donau City, on the left wall of the new Danube Canal, Neue Donau, passing through the municipality of Vienna. It is a neighborhood of mainly tertiary weft with office buildings of unconfined height, ripened in the last 20 years, including the Vienna International Centre. Copa Cagrana – the intervention area, between the Danube and the new urban zone with the D. Perrault’s tower Despite the good connection with the municipality center, the large number of buildings and the spanking-new existing natural qualities, the zone is scrutinizingly deserted during day and night. This is mainly due to the lack of variety of uses, commercial facilities and recreational areas. The proposal develops a series of strategies to revitalize an zone that once has the optimal conditions to wilt a landmark for the municipality of Vienna: FOUR OBJECTIVES 1 – Increase density and urban mixture The proposal aims to incorporate urban, commercial and leisure life at a time when Vienna is starting to squint for other forms of identity for the river area. It is important to bring new residents to help to create urban worriedness throughout day and night, summer and winter seasons by permanent and temporary uses. The mixed-use and residential functions in the first row, including the urban boulevard, have the potential to well-constructed and complement the existing urban fabric and establish, for the first time, the necessary connections to make DonauMunicipalitya functioning and heady neighbourhood.Worriednessdiagram for the variegated seasons The project proposes a upper density urban prosthesis, combining housing, office, commercial and public space, in order to create an zippy urban spot unfluctuating to the surrounding, improving its identity and multiplying the possibilities of use. The proposal seeks to make DonauMunicipalityeasier to be understood and perceived, with a well-spoken connection to Danube river and its waterfront. Therefore, the proposal is the missing link to the completion of the Donaustadt and is, at the same time, the necessary impetus to enable the urban regeneration in the area. 2 – Create new urban spots Copa Cagrana will be an heady new urban spot in Wien, which is perfectly unfluctuating to the municipality network thanks to the transport connectivity and subway line. Through the physical proximity with existing Donau City, Donau Insel and surrounding neighborhoods, the zone will increase popularity and will offer increasingly attractions to the users. The newly created waterfront will be an urban catalyser with a variety of urban functions, with uses equal to the seasons and day and night time: The FILTER ZONE is a increasingly quiet zone self-ruling of commercial activities. The TEMPORARY ZONE changes equal the variegated seasons, with waterfront bars in the summer, pop-up restaurants, terraces and platforms, etc. The WATERFRONT is an enjoyable walkable strip with piers and heady water activities for summer and winter. The FILTER ZONE 3 – Renaturing (urban+nature landscape) A new urban and natural environment intrinsically unfluctuating with surrounding nature. It will be the connecting environment between Donauinsel and Donau Park but moreover extending its limits over the water landscape of Neue Donau to create a vibrant and diverse waterscape.   Masterplan 1:1000 4 – Digital Identity – web app strategy It is important to create the liaison channels in order to ventilate and share information well-nigh the ongoing activities and as a way to share potential ideas to be implemented. This web APP is thought to work as a social network that provides information for the citizens of Copa Cagrana on what kind of activities they can do on this renewed urban area. Users will be worldly-wise to register and create a user profile, with this, they will have the opportunity of proposing activities that will make use of the trappy surroundings and installations of this urban space. The commercial sector will moreover have their own space. They will have the possibility of creating a profile which will indulge them to publicize their products and business, as well as invite and inform citizens well-nigh special deals, offers, events and other celebrations.   FIVE NEW URBAN ZONES Cross Section Seeking to unzip these four objectives, the proposal creates 5 zones vicarial together and related to each other: Zone C+: Infiltration municipality The energy of municipality life will splash towards DonauMunicipalityand the urban plinth will proffer its limits to bring worriedness and reconfigure the public spaces virtually the corporative and residential buildings. These urban tentacles will proffer urban plinth limits with linear and small scale pavilions, pop-up stores and cafes, etc. reconnecting and renewing the pedestrian pathways of the Donau city. Elevation Zone C: Social life municipality Zone C proposal is the most powerful urban energy boost, as it provides a large value of overlapped new programs and public spaces hands wieldy at variegated levels. Areas: Urban plinth: fragmented construction from 1 to 4 stories high, multiple programs with predominance of commercial spaces overlapped with public spaces at variegated levels. Vertical ecosystems: housing towers with a myriad of variegated typologies to create a diverse neighbourhood. The housing units help to create a dumbo neighbourhood with urban life throughout the day. Urban bridge: On the tenth floor, same level as the top terrace of the existing linear towers of social housing, a underpass is creating connections between semi public spaces, with diverse programs within the vertical ecosystems. Public peaks: the top floor of the variegated towers is moreover part of the network of semi public spaces within the vertical ecosystems. These spaces can hold multiple programs and part of their success will be the privileged point of view of the municipality (terraces, cafes, worldwide spaces,… ) Zone B: nature municipality This is a zone where nature is predominant and the urban plinth is melting its limits with the landscape. At the same time, the natural weft of this zone helps to make the transition between the bigger, urban scale of zone C and both the lower scale of zone B and the waterscape towards Donauinsel, combining natural areas with paths for soft mobility.Variegatedcross sections in zones A and B Zone A: Leisure municipality Leisure cityscape to indulge the transition between the formal municipality and the vibrant and overly waffly new waterscape of zone C+. It will hold multiple permanent uses but moreover temporary programs and seasonal activities. There are multiple temporary and permanent uses in small buildings with similar language, as well as a new riverside walk that will proffer to create a well-appointed linear space. The relationship with water and the elevation difference will be resolved with a wooden platform that will act as an urban sofa to relax and enjoy the presence and proximity of the river. Zone A+: Water municipality Vibrant and overly waffly waterscape in continuous evolution. It will proffer the activities of the new urban spot towards the water. Masterplan 1:2000 + water pier: permanent pier, water thematic. Light structure with indoor and outdoor spaces to indulge the megacosm of variegated bathing experiences. The use will transpiration seasonally, during the winter, outdoor and indoor climatized pools will indulge the user to be in connection with the surrounding natural landscape while having a pleasant bathing experience. The water pier for summer activities + ice pier: permanent pier, ice and climbing sports oriented. Light structure with a strong seasonal connection. During the winter, part of the structure will be a huge frozen and faceted vertical surface to practice ice climbing, while the lower platform will host variegated ice skating outdoor rinks to practice in connection with the water and natural landscape. During the summer the ice surface is transformed into a huge waterfall falling from the upper level into the river. The ice pier for winter climbing +The urban archipelago: big modular and floating overly waffly extension of the waterfront. The variegated seasons and uses will dramatically transform its configuration. This mutant landscape is built with modular floating platforms/barges that can be combined to create larger unappetizing surfaces if necessary. These platforms can be unfluctuating to the limit line of the waterfront to proffer its surface.
