Rathaus und Stadtbibliothek Brühl

The new library extends the volume of the town hall, which has been renovated in accordance with historic preservation guidelines. Three staggered gables form the facade facing the alley, while large openings mark the entrances and reading areas, and perforated facades define the offices. The light-coloured, flat-format bricks extend up to the roof surfaces, reinforcing the building’s cubic form. Filter masonry protects against excessive UV exposure.
