A cloud of glass for the Juridicum Vienna

Juridicum Vienna, a technically innovative architecture by Prof. Arch. Ernst Hiesmayr

Arch. Hiesmayr and Prof. Leo Wollner were cooperating creating solutions for many private as well as public buildings. Leo Wollner’s role was to offer colour-matching schemes - in the case of the Juridicum he advised the dark blue of the metal construction of the building. On the top floor he created a glass cloud as ceiling decoration since a textile solution was forbidden because of fire safety-reasons.
