This project was the practical part of my bachelor thesis and was developed independently. The task was to design a meaningful space for the community of St. Pölten within the existing structure of the former turbine hall of the Glanzstoff factory. I created a sustainable and creative hub for students that combines living, working, and relaxing in one innovative concept. Where mechanical turbines once generated power, the energy now comes from people, plants, and movement.
