Competition LaGa Multipurpose Hall
Hemer
Due to its significance as a former Bundeswehr site, the withdrawal of the military from the Blücher barracks creates the need for societal and cultural reorientation in the city of Hemer. The development of the cultural district, city terraces, and "Felsenmeer" (rocky sea) are key elements of the urban spatial concept. Along the Jüberg Promenade, the individual components of this trilogy are connected.
Two distinct building forms reflect the different functional areas. A cubic, block-like structure (stage, multipurpose) and transparent depth (sports hall) convey the varied content.
Materials
The cubic block form of the multipurpose area and the stage is defined by its exterior design, featuring an anthracite-colored, anodized, folded metal facade. This rough, closed surface contrasts with the smooth, translucent surfaces of the glass facades of the hall structure, which are adorned with large-scale stone motifs tinted gray through a screen printing process.
Energy Concept
The guiding principles for energy optimization are:
- Avoid energy expenditure | 2. Optimize energy conversion | 3. Manage energy use intelligently.
Facades
The design of the enclosing surfaces is optimized for heat transmission, summer heat protection, and the best possible use of daylight and ambiance.
Energy Management
Energy management plays an essential role in the overall concept. During the planning process, it should be assessed to what extent the necessary energy demands occur simultaneously. By intelligently shifting loads, the required energy supply can be reduced. Additionally, power consumption can be further reduced by using variable-speed pumps for the heating and cooling circuits with automatic shutdown for unused areas. Presence- and daylight-dependent lighting controls, as well as the use of energy-efficient lighting systems, ensure an overall minimized electricity demand.
