Entrepreneurs therefore tend to focus on urban factors concerning the choice of location, but also increasingly on creating beautifully designed workplaces.

In the case of ÖAMTC the client wanted a competence centre – modern, innovative, competent and powerful – for the optimal care of its members and staff training.

As typical and crucial for the design he considers rather the arbitrariness of the situation, the ambiguity about the focus of urban development and the neutrality of the site in terms of development.

Due to intelligence and accuracy in the detailing process (spatial joints, material transitions, incidence of light) this competence centers differ pleasantly from the exclusive surface infatuation of comparable built contemporaries.

By linking different work and communication processes logically the team performance has risen impressively by means of an attractive environment  Image Courtesy © PAUAT, Luttenberger The ÖAMTC bases provide more than the necessary infrastructure, but it loosens the standards of industrial standard in commercial construction by carefree freshness. The successful concept not only leads the buildings out of a typological anonymity and awards the individual bases not only high profile but is presented with large identity conveying luminous letters advertising corporate identity – ‘A good feeling to be with the club.
