Text description provided by architect.
The ecological event hall is situated next to an existing warehouse and connected to the youth centre Tranzit.
The specific structure and the rhythmic construction of the existing warehouses were the sources of inspiration for the design of this new complex.
The first nave of the existing warehouse became the entrance area for the visitors of the youth centre and the new party hall.
The party-goers get a wonderful view on the dance floor while standing on the first floor.
The hall roof’s form blends in with the existing roofs of the warehouse in a modern-day way. The inclining roof construction guarantees a particular spaciousness for the party halls.
