Bild des Projekts Christuskirche Gemeindehaus

The project received the following awards:

A differentiated height staggering integrates the new cubature of the parish hall into the existing urban environment. It mediates between the towering, recessed church building and the projecting alignment of the surrounding buildings. The churchyard with its canopy acts as a distributor and meeting point in the outdoor space.

The volume, which is divided into three sections (service area / connecting path / community rooms), is arranged lengthwise and thus follows the structural division of the church interior. The central element, barrier-free access and "new center" of the ensemble is the foyer, which is laid out transversely to the nave and is directly connected to the sanctuary. The floor and ceiling correspond with each other in terms of design and create flowing transitions.
