The modernization of the listed city hall of Mainz, work of the architect Arne Jacobsen from 1974, requires careful means. The design approach follows the maxims: Appreciate value, maintain substance, promote culture of use, and cautiously modernize, adapt, and supplement. In addition to the technical and energy-related renovation measures, design and functional interventions while preserving the character of the existing building were also part of the task.
