Upcycling Hub

West of Wiener Neustadt, a disposal site for aluminium slag will be redeveloped during the next decade. The BALSA Bundesaltlastensanierungsgesellschaft m. b. H. has announced an open competition of ideas for this area after the removal of the aluminium waste. The team of miss_vdr architektur and tilia büro für landschaftsplanung won the fourth prize.

As this site is connected to rubbish, we picked up this issue but changed the focus from a disposal site towards an upcycling hub. Garbage is transfered into a resource, new ways of treatment and new possibilities for reuse can be developed in the upcycling laboratory.

The project has successively been realized by the three neighbouring city districts as a “growing open space“. It started 2014 with the most western part, the “Hernalser Spitz“. In 2016 the western section in front of the U 6 Station has been finished. As a last step, the realization of the eastern part of this open space is planned.
