RATHAUS MAINZ
Competition entry for the renovation of the listed city hall Mainz
Work of the architect Arne Jacobsen




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.
