The community rooms of the Adventist Church in Karlsruhe no longer meet the usage requirements and are to be modernised. There is also a desire for barrier-free access to the community rooms and the other floors of the building, which contain flats. The listed status of the front building must be taken into account during the planning process.
Internal circulation between the entrance floor and the first floor, where the community rooms are located, is planned. In order not to compromise the listed building status, it makes sense to accommodate new rooms - such as the ancillary rooms in the foyer - in inserted wooden structures.
The design also envisages that the existing façade of the front building will be exposed again and an atrium will be created between the front and intermediate building. At the request of the congregation, the current layout of the community rooms on the first floor is to be restructured and reorganised to create several group rooms and a larger and more modern kitchen to enrich community life.
