Civic Hall Bergisch Gladbach, Urban and Landscape Design Competition, Cooperation gmp Architekten, April 2019, 3. Prize

In combination with the new bus-station, the ne entrée for the town of Bergisch Gladbach is under construction. The L-shape of the architecture sets a definite brand,  for the central communal use, like library, to emphasize the location alongside the former rail tracks and opposite the bus-station. Highlighting the functionality for transport in inner urban areas accords,- with strict geometry of formgiving and tree plantages, -  to the remarkable allocation of the new building within the urban context. The surrounding areas with park-like open spaces are – by emphasizing the mobility-central place-, definitely and spatially connected. The head of the new establishment is marked in open space by the plaza of city-partnerships. A gap within the urban fabric is closed in a contemporary way.
