The four-class older building, a mixed construction, is supplemented with an addition in timber construction and eight new classes. The bungalow concept of the first construction phase was taken up in the extension and supplemented by an above-lying beam with four classes.
Throughout, emphasis was placed on reducing the use of reinforced concrete, the top ceiling is constructed of laminated timber, and the exterior walls are largely made of wood. Insulation materials from renewable raw materials were mainly used. An untreated fir wood facade and an external sunshade characterize the exterior appearance.
Inside, double doors between the rooms allow individual rooms to be joined together.
