City & Water Living: U1 Donauinsel - DC2 Tower: First Occupancy

Vienna's new landmark for living at a height

In the DC Tower 2, living begins where the city merges into vastness. High above Vienna, exclusive apartments unfold with a panorama that is unparalleled: the view sweeps over the skyline, follows the Danube – the mighty 'megawater' of the city – and extends far beyond urban and scenic horizons. Here, the view becomes not a luxury but a daily experience.

With the DC2 Tower, a new architectural landmark is emerging in Vienna's Donau-City, marking a milestone for sustainable high-rise living in Europe. Designed by the internationally renowned architect Dominique Perrault, the 175-meter-high tower combines visionary architecture, forward-looking energy concepts, and exclusive living at previously unattainable heights.

The DC2 Tower, with 52 floors and 314 high-quality apartments starting from the 32nd floor, is one of the most spectacular residential projects in the country. The apartment sizes range from approximately 30 to 260 square meters, offering a consciously diverse range – from intelligently planned one-room studios to comfortable family apartments and spacious five-room maisonette apartments. Each unit impresses with well-thought-out floor plans, high living quality, and generous window areas that stage the view outside and make the city part of the living space. Loggias, balconies, and open spaces expand the living area and make the impressive height immediately tangible.

'Close to the clouds' becomes a reality here – a true 7th Heaven for discerning city dwellers.

Architecture meets innovation

A special focus is on sustainability and future viability. As Austria's first high-rise with a photovoltaic facade and the first building in Europe whose PV elements extend over the entire building height, the DC2 Tower sets new standards. The light-permeable PV panels allow natural daylight to enter while simultaneously making a significant contribution to self-generated electricity.

This stylish studio in the DC2 Tower combines urban comfort with a unique view of the Vienna International Center (VIC). The open view of Vienna's international district gives the apartment a cosmopolitan flair and makes it a special retreat above the city. The approximately 10 m² loggia, which extends along the entire apartment, expands the living space outward and becomes a private viewing terrace overlooking one of Europe's most significant international centers.

Room concept & equipment

The floor plan is modern, clear, and efficiently designed: Upon entering, the practically integrated kitchenette with dining area is located to the right, harmoniously blending into the living area. On the opposite side, the bright living area opens up, inviting relaxation and leisure. A stylish room divider visually separates the sleeping area from the living space, creating a pleasant balance between openness and privacy. The bathroom is equipped with a shower, washbasin, integrated WC, and washing machine connection. Generous window areas provide ample daylight and emphasize the unobstructed view of the Vienna International Center.
