BFA x KLK designed a new commercial and office building on a vacant lot in the city of Vienna, Austria. The project is the result of collaboration between the BFA and BÜRO KLK studios, which have successfully completed several projects in recent years.
The building's program has fifty commercial apartments and six offices. All the apartments are oriented towards the southeast, which allowed an optimization of the lighting conditions. Noise pollution was reduced to the same extent as the orientation towards a quieter side street.

The project designed by BFA x KLK offers maximum spaciousness and comfort and has apartments that are accessible through a gallery and an external staircase. The compact floor plan consists of a generous main hallway, a sleeping area, sanitary facilities, and a living room with a sloping ceiling gazebo and balcony.
The facade of the building stands out for the use of Schrebergardens, small intimate traditional Vienna gardens, which express a strong character in terms of urban development in a neighborhood characterized by a predominantly commercial use.

Description of the project by BFA x KLK
Business Apartments
Fifty business apartments and six offices were constructed in a new building on an empty lot in Vienna. The first phase focused on supporting work for the necessary rededication. In further phases, optimal light conditions were achieved by orienting all of the apartments facing South-East. Noise pollution was reduced by the same measure since the orientation towards a more quiet side street acted as natural sound abatement.
Following the client’s brief of modern temporary living spaces, these affordable micro-apartments offer maximized spaciousness and comfort. Each apartment is accessible via an arcade and external staircase and features a balcony. The compact floor plan consists of a generous main corridor, a bedroom area, sanitary facilities, and a living space with a pitched roof oriel and a balcony. Minimizing the results of the adjacent room in a bright and generous living space that meets the dynamic needs of the future residents.
The building's facade is comprised of stacked traditional Viennese Schrebergardens (small, intimate garden communities), expressing a strong character in terms of urban development in a neighborhood characterized by predominantly commercial use.

BFA x KLK stands for two offices that have successfully completed several projects in the last years. The collaboration pursuits the approach of facing diverse situations with curiosity and putting original ideas into practice and is characterized by a common passion for experimentation, profound expertise, and a fine sense for the aesthetical. This results in an interdisciplinary practice that unites the fields of architecture, design & interior, project management, and urban strategies. It is in this wide spectrum where two generations with an awareness for the interplay between people and space find each other.
