The Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel presents itself with a newly designed entrance area that combines classical architecture with modern design elements. The redesign is based on the original blueprints of the Ferris wheel, built in 2002, and incorporates architectural forms dating back to the Gothic period.
The central element of the new entrance is the so-called Reuleaux triangle – a geometric shape created by the overlapping of three circles. This motif, which has already been used in historical buildings and forms the basis of the Wankel engine, symbolizes the steady rotation of the Ferris wheel. The design for the redesigned entrance area was created by Artdeluxe Vienna in collaboration with Atelier Brada. With the new design, the Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel continues its long tradition of regularly modernizing its appearance.
The striking architecture of the new entrance is particularly evident during a ride on the Ferris wheel. The three roof elements dominate the view from above and give the building a distinctive silhouette. The design adjustments are intended not only to optimize visitor navigation but also to underscore the historical significance of the landmark.
With its current redesign, the Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel continues its more than 125-year history. Since its construction in 1897, the Ferris Wheel has been one of Vienna's most famous landmarks and an integral part of the cityscape.
