Hagenbrunn, 2017

Area: 1300 m²

Client: Federal Government of Lower Austria, department of Culture

Team: Eric Jentzsch

The design for this roundabout in a rural area of Austria, realized within the program “art in public space”, refers to a defining element of Hagenbrunn’s cultural landscape: the viticulture.

The arrangement of the oversized trellis on the roundabout follows a classic motif of baroque garden art – the „Patte d’oie“ (goosefoot, a three-beam avenue system converging in one point). Due to the special positioning, car drivers experience shifting perspectives, while the planting creates changes in the appearance over the seasons.
