history

The exhibition hall and the exhibition center were built between 1991 and 1993 according to plans by the architect Thomas Herzog and the lighting engineer Christian Bartenbach .

architecture

The building was designed as a steel and glass construction in connection with the steel city of Linz. It has the shape of a lying cylinder segment. The arch construction - the arches are guided freely on the outside - is statically and formally effective. The glass roof with 3,456 glass panels creates a glare-free daylight atmosphere.

architectural art

Nikolaus Lang and Rainer Wittenborn , Pepi Meier, Waltraut Cooper and Ferdinand Götz show visual arts in buildings . In October 1997, Johannes Angerbauer-Goldhoff staged a large-scale art installation in the Design Center, an accessible, golden gallery.
