Museum Selma

With a consistently sustainable concept, a listed industrial hall in Cologne-Kalk is being transformed into Museum Selma – a central venue dedicated to Germany’s migration society. The design preserves the history of the existing structure and adds modular timber elements based on Cradle-to-Cradle principles. Visible traces of industrial labour are integrated into the architecture, reflecting the close link between migration and work. The concept sets a forward-looking example for inclusive participation, cultural diversity, and climate-conscious building.
