AM KAISERFORUM An idea reaches for the sky. We were entrusted with the task of reviving the Am Kaiserforum building for sophisticated residences. It was with pleasure that we accepted this challenge of preserving the historical basis and continuing the traditional excellence. Being the architectural companion in the construction and planning team, we designed the high-quality loft maisonettes with admiration of and respect for the work of the architect Ferdinand Fellner the Elder. Our main focus was on creating a spacious atmosphere, ideal light distribution and attractive lines of sight to achieve wide views. Owing to the excellent urban and topographic location, you can enjoy a marvellous view in every direction from the top floors the Museum of Art History, MuseumQuarter, Hofburg and Karlskirche are just a few examples of the numerous eye-catchers. Starting at the rotunda at the corner of Babenbergerstrasse and Nibelungengasse, tranquil, elegant roofscapes were developed with generous terraces. In analogy with the ambiance of the single-floor apartments, the surfaces and materials were defined in line with the Viennese craftsmanship tradition transferring it to the present times. At Am Kaiserforum we create unique apartments living up to the highest standards of design and ecological efficiency. Architect Fritz Kaufmann Holzbauer & Partner VIENNA, OCTOBER 2014

HISTORY The name Am Kaiserforum literally at the imperial forum hints at the imperial-royal history of the location. In 1870, the architects Gottfried Semper and Carl Hasenauer ventured on a ground-breaking project: By order of Emperor Franz Josef of Austria, the Hofburg ensemble was to be expanded to a complex along the lines of Versailles. Ultimately, only the court museums, a wing of New Hofburg and the stately houses bordering on the monumental museum buildings were ever realised. Thus, this building located at the corner of Nibelungengasse and Babenbergerstrasse became part of the historic project. The Extravagant Print after a drawing by Semper and Hasenauer.
