Description

The work of Albert Wimmer is characterised by his incessant drive to find ideal answers to the constantly changing demands on architecture. Wimmer has set international standards with major projects in the areas of urban planning, living, working, culture and sports. His winning entry for the construction of the new Tivoli Stadium in Innsbruck was the foundation for his work in stadium construction which was followed by stadiums in Salzburg, Klagenfurt and Nicosia.

As a place where utterly diverse social milieus and cultural practices encounter one another, stadiums draw their quality primarily from their dialogue with the social, economic, cultural and regional contexts. Along with their striking architectural design element, stadiums need to make the connection between functionalism and experience, which is apparent in Albert Wimmer's designs.
