While the left portion of the hall was renovated and preserved, the right section, due to its structural condition, was demolished, rebuilt, and adapted to the new programmatic needs. To clearly differentiate the various functions while maintaining a visual and spatial connection, the original massing and the distinctive central connecting volume were retained. Inside, the Corten steel continues to clad this central volume, enhancing the dialogue between interior and exterior. Skylights facilitate natural illumination and, depending on the sun’s position, cast striking shadow patterns across the Corten-clad walls.
A striking detail: the intermediate structure not only serves as an important link between all functions, it also houses the main and rear entrances. Both entrances are fully glazed, making the proximity to the vineyards almost tangible. Upon entering the hall, one has the feeling of walking directly towards the vineyards.

Multifunctional programmatic and design concept
The building’s façade clearly reflects its diverse functions: the right section features smaller, more intimate openings marking the spaces of the new daycare centre, while the upper floors of the left section, with the Gemeindehalle, the locally called Bädle, the sports hall, and the rear-positioned gymnastics hall are articulated with larger openings.
At the heart of the building lies the Gemeindehalle itself. With a large stage, capacity for up to 800 people, and a full-height glass façade opening onto the forecourt, it provides a contemporary venue for community events and celebrations. Directly beneath, the Bädle, a teaching swimming pool primarily used by school classes, was renovated. An additional sports hall with changing rooms was integrated into the basement to accommodate local sports clubs and classes.

The daycare centre Klecks-Box, located in the right building section, spans three floors and provides space for up to 60 children. The interiors are designed to support the open-concept educational approach, offering varied spatial qualities depending on the floor: a generous outdoor area on the ground floor, a cafeteria and atelier on the first floor, and administrative rooms as well as playrooms on the second floor.

Materials are consistently used across both building sections and all levels. For example, rubber linoleum is applied in both the daycare and sports areas, while exposed concrete screed lines the circulation zones. A recurring design element is the wooden slat cladding, which imparts warmth to large-volume spaces such as the sports hall, gymnastics hall, and Gemeindehalle. To aid orientation, each floor features its own distinct colour scheme.
