Messestrasse II is Winner of the DNA Paris Design Award 2020 in the category Architecture: Education and Sports. The new building of the Sigmund Freud University Vienna that has been constructed in the neighbouring plot to the existing building of the Sigmund Freud University Campus Messestrasse – also planned by Holzer Kobler Architekturen – provides ideal environment and learning conditions for students of medicine, dentistry and law. The spatial organisation of Messestrasse II as well as the academic and medical infrastructure correspond to the international standards and demands of current university buildings. Wrapped in a golden metal façade, the sculptural building interacts with the existing University campus and fits harmoniously, yet distinctively, into the neighbourhood.
