Building on the results of the first phase of the eightplus research project (timber construction in the high-rise sector), a high-rise with a technologically sophisticated primary construction in wood was developed in a second phase on behalf of WSE Wiener Lageentwicklung GmbH. Equipped with energy-efficient building and facade technology, the building is not only an ecological pioneer with its construction, but also represents sustainable urban development as a whole. The office building, which presents itself clearly, precisely and contemporary with a glass facade and the visible wooden skeleton behind it, has a strong signaling effect. The office building has an open floor plan and technical equipment that allows the building to be operated as a passive house. The building concept offers companies and organizations a location that allows them to express their basic ecological attitude.
