Commendation in the Lippstadt City Museum competition

Congratulations to our competition team: Our design for the extension of the City Museum in Lippstadt, which we developed with ST raum a. Landschaftsarchitektur (Berlin), received a commendation!

“The work develops a very clear urban planning concept in which the market square is defined as a spatial continuum that respects all edges of the square equally. [...] Inside, the building impresses with its clear spatial structure, both in terms of floor plan design and vertical development,” said the jury, chaired by Holger Rübsamen (Bochum).
