Purity and simplicity of the functional links originates from the designed main hall of the building permeating into the Customer Service Space having the role of the information centre for the visitors who are then guided to appropriate departments located in the North and South wings of the building through stairs and duplex lifts.
The designed part spatially and functionally fitting into the existing structure has a cast-in-place reinforced concrete slab-column framed structure supported on a grid of 500 mm round columns. The floor slabs are flat plate type, i.e. supported by columns without capitals. The advantage of this system is a lack of obstacles in the under slab space (used for routing of systems). The spatial rigidity of the building is provided by the core enclosures and by the columns.
The most characteristic design feature is the front facade of the new part turning into the roof plane, smoothly rising towards the building ridge in the corner part. The facade is made of cavity walls finished on the outside with in-situ concrete casing, anchored to the reinforced concrete structure that is exposed inside the building. The planes of the walls and roof are cut through by vertical rows of windows arranged in the manner corresponding to the fenestration of the historic Town Hall. The new part interior decoration is based on architectural concrete, white colour and light ash wood finishing materials. In any historic building alteration projects we respect the original decoration, including both materials and the colour scheme.
