Mara Liepa-Zemesa

Abstract


The article discusses trends of Vienna’s architectonic spatial development. Vienna is a city that, one the one hand, lives in its historical arhitecture and city planning and, on the other hand, has allowed innovative building in certain areas. Historical development of Vienna was analyzed, underlining aspects which have had the most impact to the current urban fabric. Since in the federal country of Austria Vienna is a state and a municipality at the same time, it has created its own special planning instruments and regulation for city planning. In achieving more sucessfull city planning results, city planners have admitted that development of informal planning is necessary, paying large attention to involving society in the planning process.
