This project is a newly built house built as an expansion for an existing lecture hall building. The building consists of several lecture rooms, bureaus, a kindergarten, and a canteen/cafeteria (“Mensa”).
The main theme of this draft was the creation of a very special atmosphere by assimilating the topography into the building's concept. That way, the terraced slope creates a new venue at the Waldcampus, a central meeting point for students and staff. The new campus meeting place sweeps through the building, outside as well as inside, in the form of a “Sitzwand” (a wall on which it is possible to take a seat, like in an amphitheater.) Thus, the situation of the building on a slope is used in a sensitive, useful way. At the same time, the slope is used to create two ground levels, which renders the building barrier-free.
Eberswalde is one of Germany's most important cities for studying forest sciences for over 150 years. Furthermore, the Hochschule für nachhaltige Entwicklung Eberswalde (HNEE) bears the title "Grünste Hochschule Deutschlands," which led to the request for wood as the preferred building material.
