Project details
The VIVAWEST administrative building is situated on the grounds of the former Nordstern coal mine. Its red façade perfectly complements the red brickwork of the listed old building. A glazed passage connects the old and the new, establishing a cross-building communication level. The expressive red color is also incorporated in the light-filled interior, ensuring a coordinated overall appearance.
