오스트리아 린츠공항 메인 출입구 전면에 설치된 거대한 오브제는 물결치는 웨이브의 인상적인 시퀀스를 형성한다. 사실은 250대 분량의 차량을 주차하기 위한 주차 시스템으로 모듈화된 30개의 깔대기형상으로 이루어진다. 스틸 스트럭쳐 위에 백색의 멤브레인으로 마감, 디자인된 모듈(11X18미터) 유닛은 개별적인 형태미는 물론 효율적인 활용이 가능한 것이 특징이다. 게다가 사용자 또는 사용처에 따라 모듈을 빠르게 가변적으로 확장, 축소함으로써 저비용으로 운영이 가능하다.

austrian studio HPSA has completed an undulating carpark roof using 30 separate funnel-shaped membranes. located in front of the main entrance of linz airport in austria, the lightweight construction has capacity for 250 places. if necessary, the shelter can be quickly and cost-effectively dismantled and rebuilt at another site if a multi-storey building needs to be built. the components have individual dimensions of 11×18 m covering a total area of 6040 square meters, while the internal membrane hides the steel structure to the viewer.
during the course of the day as shadows appear and fade,
the surface of the exterior skin also changes. all of the components
are merged into one plastic unit – the load bearing beams, membrane and
sewerage needs. the roof material is made of PVC coated polyester
fabrics with 10% light transmission and 7% solar transmission, leaving
the parking light and preventing vehicles from overheating.
the funnels are attached to steel frames, which were mostly already assembled on the ground and afterwards lifted by crane to transport them to the exact position – the textile funnels were then fixed on by rail fastenings. this static construction method ensures that the heavy snow load in winter does not endanger its stability. due to the high degree of prefabrication, the steel and textile form was finished within a short period of just four weeks. during the nighttime, the building is illuminated by four ground lights with each column turning the building into a glowing sculpture.
