Sixth Vienna Architecture Congress
Where do we live? Where will we live?

Location: Architekturzentrum Wien - Podium
Congress: 13 November 1998 - 15 November 1998

After the congresses on "Urbanisation" of the last few years the 6th Viennese Architecture Congress lays its focus on the various aspects of housing. It intends to initiate a critical and historical survey to analyze the residence issue in the many cultural strata it involves: urban planning and architecture, private images of life and media, technology and building industry, economy and the changing working world. A kind of "attack of interdisciplinarity against existing architectural structures".
