renswoude City hall
In 2020, Zecc won the architectural selection for the restoration and expansion of Renswoude city hall building. In addition to the characteristic national monument front, a new two-floor volume has been created, housing the council chamber, public counters & workplaces, the modern extension of the building was constructed in CLT and equipped with a circular ceramic facade of demountable brick strips with Waste Glaze (FORZ®Glaze). One of the most important design choices was moving parking to the rear of the building. This created the opportunity to strongly connect the town hall spatially with the forest on the other side of the road. The greenery now flows, as it were, from forest, to landscaped grounds, over the sedum-covered pathways into the building. The unique glazed facade enhances this effect and provides a great experience from the workplaces of greenery and the passing of the seasons.
