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.

Last week we gave two teams of Theatremakers from the Open Exchange Network the opportunity to create a piece of work at the Exchange. It’s a chance for them to explore and develop the way they make work. Using the illustrated children’s book THE RED TREE by Shaun Tan as inspiration, the focus of this REACT is to create an age specific piece for children aged 10 and under. #RXREACT

A 54-year-old Norridge man was cited for not stopping at a stop sign and causing a two-vehicle crash Sunday near Harvard, police said.
The crash occurred about 3 p.m. Sunday at O'Brien and Alden roads, McHenry County Sheriff's Deputy Sandra Rogers said.
A Toyota Camry driven by Konstadinos Sakoufakis was traveling east on O'Brien Road when Sakoufakis failed to stop at a stop sign at Alden Road, Rogers said. A Lexus RX 350 that was traveling south on Alden Road crashed into the driver's side door of the Camry, she said.
Sakoufakis was trapped in his car, and it took 15 minutes for the Hebron-Alden-Greenwood Fire Protection District to free him, Rogers said. He later was cited for not stopping.
Sakoufakis was flown by REACT to Mercy Hospital in Rockford, and the driver of the Lexus was taken to Mercy Health Hospital and Medical Center - Harvard. Both had injuries that were not life-threatening, Rogers said.
