Abstract

Vienna is known throughout the world as the capital of social housing. Since the 1920s, the Austrian metropolis has indeed developed a unique system of subsidized housing construction independently of the "free" market, accommodating more than sixty percent of its population today. The Vienna Model 2: Housing for the Twenty-First-Century City, which is the book accompanying the successful exhibition of the same name, analyzes the latest developments in housing and documents 50 projects in Vienna from recent years. It shows how technical, ecological, and social qualities are continuously developed further as part of a broad participatory process, thereby setting new standards. The spectrum ranges from the revitalization of neighborhoods to the planning of new city districts. Moreover, The Vienna Model 2: Housing for the Twenty-First-Century City describes the international building exhibition IBA_Vienna 2022, with the theme "New Social Housing." In parallel, Sorcha Edwards and Cédric Van Styvendael analyze the current challenges and possible solutions to the issue of housing in the European Union. Sasha Tsenkova, in turn, presents the Canadian approaches to creating affordable living space. The essay by Mladen Jadric provides an overview of social housing in China, India, Indonesia, Singapore, and South Korea. William Menking analyzes New York's public housing and its relation to Vienna.

Abstract

Building on urbanistic and social aspects, Vienna has not only constructed new housing projects with distinctive qualities throughout the city but also founded and revitalized entire quarters. With their historical roots in 'Red Vienna,' these concepts signal dynamic opportunities to enhance the quality of life in a contemporary metropolis by creating model living environments. 'The Vienna Model: Housing for the Twenty-First-Century City' shines the spotlight on sixty prototypical projects from the last hundred years, with a special focus on the public art that has complemented the city's housing since the First Republic. Around 300 illustrations and accompanying texts provide a comprehensive overview of the 'Vienna Model'.
