Little Kozmo playing peek-a-boo with me.

See the face peeking from the back of the turret of the nearest tank? Yep it's me and those in the know can tell just how ancient I really am, from the make and model of the tank...

Peek & Cloppenburg Flagship Store, Vienna, Austria

The new Peek & Cloppenburg flagship store will be located on Kärtner Strasse, between

Johannesgasse and Himmelpfortgasse, in Vienna’s historic centre, a district protected as a

UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The starting point for the design was the idea of a “building with windows” – a modern, abstract

interpretation of a classical building typology, which is not freestanding but part of the overriding

structure of the urban area. The building will assert itself as tectonically powerful, and

demonstrate a long-lasting and institutional character through the selection of its materials and

proportions, whilst remaining modest and above all becoming an integral part of the street

façade. The defining material for the façade is a light-coloured, finely pointed Danube Limestone

(Donaukalk) – a typical Viennese building material. The façade will be solidly built, corresponding

in its materiality and craftsmanship with the historic context.

The new building volume will close the urban block as a continuation of the neighbouring

buildings. In its rational structure the design ties in strongly with the tradition of late Viennese

department stores. The façade will subtly react to the structure of the neighbouring buildings.

The window proportions and the ratio between closed wall and openings will reflect the historic

neighbouring buildings. The otherwise recessed glass layer will be brought forward on the ground

floor, transforming the wall openings into display windows at street level. On the fourth floor, the

façade will open up to the city through a loggia.

The six sales levels will be accessed from the main entrance on Kärtner Strasse via a central

atrium, flooded by daylight. A translucent glass and bronze structure crowns the atrium in the

tradition of the large department stores of the 19

th

century, acting as a counterpoint to the sales

areas with its textile stock.

I woke up to a beautiful sunny day after a couple days of stormy weather. Good opportunity to get out on a walk and get my shootin' on. The amazing morning sun peeked into my camera right in front of my apt building.

Our cat thinks that the fish bowl is his own personal water dish. Mr. Blue (the Betta) hides along the bottom and glides around his rock to peek up while the cat has his drink.

......I see you.

Ok, I am sorry I flaked out last night and went to bed instead of taking a kitchen pic. Anyhoo, here's a sneak peek. My electrician came in this a.m. and I now have 220V to my oven and cooktop.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel... It's all about countertops. COME ON COUNTERTOPS!
