Bruckner-Tower

Bruckner-Tower is a modern residential tower in Linz featuring curved facades that create a slender silhouette rising over the cityscape. The structure combines apartments with an educational institution in its base and includes wraparound balconies, rooftop gardens, and a central courtyard.

The building emerged from a design competition held in 2017 and was completed in 2021. It replaced the former location of a university campus with a new mixed-use development that reshaped that part of the city.

The building houses an educational institution for music and arts within its lower levels, creating a shared environment where students and residents interact daily. This blend of learning and living spaces shows how contemporary design can weave different functions together.

The tower is visible from multiple angles throughout the neighborhood and has several public access points to its courtyard and rooftop gardens. The best views come from the surrounding streets and parks where you can see the full curved form from different perspectives.

The tower's curved facades were designed using an innovative approach that helps distribute wind pressure while creating more exterior surface area for balconies. This design strategy is uncommon in European architecture and gives the building technical distinction.
