The task was to create a barrier-free access as well as a new light-flooded community room.
The basic design idea was to integrate the desired uses in the best possible way in the existing hill, which forms the basis of the church.

The connection to the church is not in the formal language but rather in the materiality: concrete, stainless steel, glass, and larch wood.
Special attention was paid to the fine detailing of the extension and the lift in the form of a glass-only construction.
