Description from the provider
Vienna's new landmark for living at a lofty height
In the DC Tower 2, living begins where the city transitions into openness. 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 is not a luxury, but a daily experience.
With the DC2 Tower, a new architectural landmark is created 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-thinking energy concepts, and exclusive living at previously unattainable heights.
The DC2 Tower is one of the most spectacular residential projects in the country, with 52 floors and 314 high-quality apartments starting from the 32nd floor. Apartment sizes range from approximately 30 to 260 square meters, offering a deliberately diverse selection – from intelligently designed studio apartments to comfortable family residences to spacious five-room maisonette apartments. Each unit impresses with well-thought-out floor plans, high living quality, and large window areas that stage the view outside and make the city part of the living space. Loggias, balconies, and open spaces extend the living area and make the impressive height immediately tangible.
"Getting so close to the clouds" becomes reality here – a true 7th Heaven for discerning city dwellers.
Architecture meets innovation
A special focus is placed on sustainability and future viability. As the first high-rise in Austria 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 contributing significantly to self-generated electricity.
