The housing estate behind the new SOS FamilenRAThaus – a family counselling centre – encircles a large, greened interior courtyard with friendly children’s playgrounds. Glazed bridges and corridors connect the varied, yet harmoniously balanced sections by the Cufer-Glück-Lainer teams and lead to a common rooftop swimming-pool. The sections designed by s&s and Kaufmann feature novel low-energy technology.
