On this specific site there is not only interaction between different people, but also between the existing building and the new extension.
The approach of this project considers the relationships between the residents and the government, both formal and personal, and aims to clearly facilitate them. In this way we get a clear and readable architecture that is more than just a purely formal building in itself.
This is also reflected in the fact that all programme components are linked together along a public central route through the building. Along this public backbone, all the back-office and administrative areas are linked, creating spontaneous social interaction and a large interface between the various users of the building.
