Politics gets interior design off the ground

The direction is right. This was determined by a clear majority of politicians after the architectural firm kadawittfeld presented drafts for the interior and lighting design to the main and finance committee at its meeting on March 4. Now it is time for further elaboration.

The house should be bright and friendly, drawing daylight into the open interior via a glass roof and thus also illuminating large areas of the building.

In addition to light basic tones, blue and orange set accents. The blue is derived from the calm blue of the sky and the spring below the house. The energetic orange stands for joie de vivre, creativity and optimism, according to the architects' explanation.
