Details
The design for the renovation of the Göttingen Town Hall is by SSP AG and soll sasse architekten BDA. The highlight is the façade. The tiles with five colours and combined reliefs are saved from the existing building and supplemented by tiles. This creates a harmonious effect from a distance and a lively play of colours up close. Historic elements are reused, giving the building, which was previously known as the “swimming pool”, a modern reinterpretation. Interior spaces such as the foyer and the multipurpose hall will be designed more flexibly and optimized in terms of energy efficiency and comfort.
The Jury‘s Statement
The renovation of the town hall/ cultural site in Göttingen is impressive because of the successful integration of historical and modern elements. The façade, with its harmonious colour composition and lively relief play, is a testament to the sensitive way in which the building was treated. The flexible interiors and the optimisation of energy efficiency and comfort set new standards for contemporary renovations.
