Situated between Ausstellungsstrasse and Vorgartenstrasse, the new Vienna Trade Fair Centre is composed of a 26-metre-high cylindrical conference building and a 96-metre-high trade fair tower, a steel structure. Both elements boast an aluminium-glass façade; the tower serves no function apart from its signal effect.
