'Wohnen in Wien: Wohnbau mit Gesinnung' explores the history and development of Viennese social housing from architectural, urban planning and social perspectives. Central to the book is the unique role of the City of Vienna as a client for large-scale housing projects and as a developer of its own housing policy. The catalogue brings together various phases of this development, focusing on municipal housing construction from the interwar period, the large-scale ?Gemeindebauten?, and the further development of social housing provision after the Second World War. Through photographs, architectural drawings, floor plans and project documentation, the housing complexes and their spatial organisation are brought to life. Particular attention is paid to the relationship between dwellings, communal facilities, inner courtyards, green spaces and the urban fabric. Furthermore, the exhibition places the Viennese experience within a broader discussion on affordable housing, communal facilities and the social significance of architecture. This publication is therefore of interest to anyone engaged with Austrian architecture, social housing, urban planning and the history of housing in the twentieth century.
