The Hass Haus is situated on Steph, ansplatz, Vienna’s  Innere Stadt (first district). Designed by Hans Hollein, it was controversial from its initiation in 1987 owing to its postmodernist contrast with the adjacent architectural masterpiece - Stephansdom cathedral.

The intrusion of a contemporary glass and stone building was met with a resistance, but if anything, the building’s centrality in Stephansplatz is relatively complementary to the cathedral; the contours of the church are brilliantly mirrored on the Hass Haus’ facade and illustrate that modern architecture can be momentous, as well as unobtrusive to its historical context.

Haas Haus was originally conceptualised as a shopping mall, however it currently functions as a hotel, restaurant and a café and has four floors of retail for an international fashion chain.
