English description provided by the architects.
Text description provided by the architects. There is no better symbol of community than a large roof that brings us all together.
A community center is an important point of identification for the population in a rural community. In this respect, the location was well chosen: although it is somewhat hidden behind the municipal office, it uses this proximity to form a center and boasts a wonderful stock of trees.
This special location allows a relaxed approach to the design of the house. It can radiate an atmosphere appropriate to the location and everyday use without having to make overly significant gestures as a public building.
A large roof under which all functions can be found is a beautiful symbol for a community. The roof overhangs ensure good accessibility and a good sheltered outdoor area for socializing.
Concrete as an outer, sound-absorbing shell for the rehearsal room and wood paneling in different patterns create an exciting but cozy atmosphere.
Small design considerations with links to a regional, traditional design language provide a special and unmistakable character to the facade.
