Densification below Castle Hill
Situated behind the archway of the castle square the old city center is being developed.
The densification building, which is prominently positioned, is located in a situation that is equally interesting in terms of landscape at the confluence of the Ems and Salzbach rivers.
The building replaces a wooden annex which burned down in 2020.
The building results in a slender volume on the narrow ground and recalls the type of the locally characteristic cross gable.
An independent-looking building is created via an architectural caesura.
The caesura continues inside. While the development is atmospherically cool and raw, the two units, for residential or commercial use, offer a warm atmosphere.
The atmosphere of the wooden building is characterized by the powerful interaction of wood, concrete and clay.
