ÖAMTC Mobility Center

The Austrian automobile association ÖAMTC commissioned a series of media installations for its new headquarters in Vienna. The task was to translate the organization’s real-time service network into a spatial, ambient experience while integrating interactive stations throughout the building’s circulation areas.

The central installation visualizes live GPS data from roadside assistance operations across Europe. For each incoming service call, a map segment of the corresponding location is retrieved and transformed into a dynamic point-cloud visualization—turning operational data into an evolving portrait of mobility and connection.

Complementing the central piece, media islands are positioned at key nodes throughout the building. Each station combines analog objects with digital interfaces: a visitor photo station, a retro-styled radio module, and a navigable archive controlled through a restored Puch 500 steering wheel. Each interaction follows its own logic while maintaining a coherent material language across all modules.
