Refurbishment of two faculty buildings in Innsbruck
The construction of the technology campus at the University of Innsbruck began in 1969 on a greenfield site on the western outskirts of the city centre. Today it is surrounded on three sides by residential buildings and to the south it is bordered by Innsbruck Airport. Up until recently the buildings on the campus epitomised the rather heavy reinforced concrete frame structures typical of myriads of universities and schools built in Central Europe during the 1970s. Most buildings of this typology are known for requiring extensive refurbishment.
