我们的建筑概念将新中心解释为一个社区的场所。新建筑的中心空间是一个三面都有框架的院子,它向南开放,因此形成了一种邀请的姿态。楼层平面图与给定顺序的轻微扭曲是指教堂,并与会众的精神聚集地展开对话。清晰的平面形状和雕塑般的屋顶景观使社区中心在Mallinckrodtplatz宽阔的城市空间中成为一个强有力的独角兽。它利用给定的舞台来展示其在城市领域的重要性,作为社区的一个场所,与它的大邻居教堂和医院为邻。

Our architectural concept interprets the new center as a place of community. The central space of the new building is a courtyard that is framed on three sides, which opens to the south and hence formulates an inviting gesture. The slight twisting of the floor plan from the given order refers to the church and opens a dialogue with the spiritual gathering place of the congregation. The clear shape of the floor plan and the sculptural roof landscape makes the community center a strong solitaire in the wide urban space of the Mallinckrodtplatz. It uses the stage given to demonstrate its importance in the urban realm as a place of the community next to its large neighbours the church and the hospital.

外立面由砖砌成,与邻近的教堂相呼应。面向院子的内立面是透明的,由玻璃制成,由几个门组成,在夏天可以轻松地在室内和室外之间转换。走廊朝向院子,因此显得开放和明亮。

The outer facade is made of brick referring to the neighbouring church. The inner facade fronting the courtyard is transparent, made of glass and structured by several doors allowing an easy transition between indoor and outdoor in the summer. The corridors are oriented towards the courtyard hence appear open and light.

通过院子和走廊的来往、入口和出口,允许交流和相遇。建筑的三翼有三种不同的用途:东翼是青年区,北翼是聚会空间,西翼是办公室和慈善商店。沿着底层的不同空间的布局使得房子的所有区域都是无障碍的。

The coming and going, the entrance and exiting through the courtyard and the corridors allow communication and encounter. The three wings of the building host three different uses: the eastern wing hosts the youth area, the northern wing the gathering spaces, and the western wing the office and the charity shop. The layout of the different spaces along the ground floor makes the house barrier-free in all areas.
