magdas Hotel is one thing above all else: a place of encounter. Situated on the edge of the public park landscape of the Vienna Prater, this social business brings together people of different originsโ€”to stay, to work, to live together.

This is where different cultures meet. It is where architecture and the human grow together. Next door to one another, there are two shared-apartment units where 25 teenagers who came to Austria as refugees without their parents live with support from the Caritas. For them, the hotel is a temporary place to stay, and for some of them, it is also their workplace. Developed from a senior citizensโ€™ home from the 1960s, magdas Hotel is a house to generate fresh chances. Refugees therefore make up most of the hotel staff, learning together with others to get a foot

in the labor market. This encouraged collaborative togetherness also finds expression in the architectural design: For the furnishing of the interiorsโ€”the lobby, restaurant and bar, hotel rooms, apartmentsโ€”AllesWirdGut drew on second-hand and found pieces and an adept mix of the two. The subdued, harmonious, and elegant color concept was complemented with distinctive individual items of furnishing, furniture with a past, and found objects with a history.

The multifunctional ground floor is all at once a reception area and lobby for hotel guests, a living room for the young people staying here, and a bar and restaurant for visitors. In a nutshell: a place of encounter.
