Rüdiger Lainer (* 1949 in Kaprun , Salzburg ) is an Austrian architect .

Life

Rüdiger Lainer studied physics, sociology and painting in Vienna and Paris between 1968 and 1971, architecture at the Technical University of Vienna from 1970 to 1978 and has been a freelance architect in Vienna since 1985 . Since 2005 he has been running the office partnership RLP Rüdiger Lainer + Partner with Oliver Sterl . From 1995 to 2006 he taught as professor and head of the master school for architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna .

With his office, Rüdiger Lainer has implemented projects of various sizes and topics: residential buildings, schools, cinemas, office buildings, exhibitions and urban planning, such as the Aspern airfield (1995), the structural concept for the northern environment Gasometer in Vienna-Simmering (1999) or the Seeparkquartier in Vienna-Aspern (from 2011).

Rüdiger Lainer was a member of the Land Advisory Board in Vienna (1999–2002), the Design Advisory Board of Krems (1996–99) and Salzburg (2003–2007, chairman since 2004). From 2006 to 2017 he was chairman of the advisory board for urban planning and urban design in Vienna. He held this position in Graz from 2012 to 2016. From 1991 to 2009 Vice President of the Central Association of Architects in Austria and since 2001 member of the board of Europan Austria.

Scope of use, appropriation areas, openness of the room organization are terms that are constantly present in Lainer's projects and texts. “The preoccupation with the city led Rüdiger Lainer to the point that he did not want to define life processes conclusively, but rather to provide or at least to think along with the scope for development. Its architecture is shaped by the knowledge of the city, its liveliness, complexity and coincidence ”and leads to a“ counter-classical attitude ”( Walter Zschokke , architect and architecture critic, 1948–2009).

The interest in sociocultural processes and the questioning of entrenched concepts of functions leads to an urban paradigm of architecture : “A well-organized house is to be laid out like a city with streets and paths that inevitably lead to places that are switched off from traffic, so that one can rest on them. "( Josef Frank : Das Haus als Weg und Platz, Vienna 1931)

In the more recent office and residential buildings, free floor plans and room configurations are increasingly being used, in which the access areas are designed in different levels of publicity and room qualities. The neutrality of possible uses and the adaptability of structures simultaneously lead to a specificity of the building forms and to unexpected spatial images.

In an increasingly intensive form of the building envelope, the “ ornament and the depths of the surface” (as the title of an exhibition by Rüdiger Lainer in Berlin 2004) became an independent component of the architecture: “Atmospherically charged layers of different depths form the envelope of the building and close Space, program and structuring principle combined into an architectural form. […] These systems, which can be read as ornament, articulate language, form and meaning as sensual elements… ”(Rüdiger Lainer). In addition to emphasizing the articulation of the materials and colors, plant elements (hanging gardens, green islands inside the building) are also increasingly included. Spatial zones, layers or screens change the concept of “facade” and lead to new types of elements between urban space and building, in a range of solutions between colored glazed spaces and textures in front of the building envelope.

The meaningfulness and limits of urban planning rules require permanent engagement with research, planning theory and the reorganization of planning processes on the basis of “concrete utopia ” (Millennium Workshop 1996) and “instrumental fantasy ” (Lainer 1999). The commitment to a new planning and urban development thinking beyond the concrete own design has been realized for ten years in an intensive activity in planning and design advisory boards.
