St. Johannis-Kirche
006_JKN





Description





We understand St. Johannis-Kirche as a place of community and as a spatial expression of ongoing processes of development and transformation over the past 200 years.
Through a functional reorganisation of the church interior and the adjacent spaces, adaptable conditions for a diverse community are to be created.

The proposed design understands itself as part of a process that, beyond providing a new spatial framework, also seeks to initiate and incorporate future transformations in church life and its responsibilities.
