With a simple gesture, the new pavilion occupies a prominent position in the newly designed landscape of the Pétrusse Valley. It dares the balancing act of creating conciseness at its location without disturbing the imposing effect of the natural monument. In imitation of the numerous pointed roofs in the surrounding area, the pavilion remains extremely sparse in its spatial depth and thus develops a strikingly slender profile that opens up the view through the valley.

Together with the existing sports hall and kindergarten, the new school building for the KGS Bildchen becomes a major player in the future development of the Preuswald district. On the one hand the arrangement of the buildings around the schoolyard creates a contained place as a special shelter for the children. And on the other hand, in addition to the school use, the new building also serves as a meeting place for a wide variety of neighborhood-related events and activities.

The renewed extension of the Deutsches Marinemuseum offers the opportunity to transform the anonymity of the annexes into an emblematic and at the same time site-specific ensemble. The result is a large-scale building framing the outdoor exhibits and at the same time giving expression to the museums appearance. Starting with the historical shipyard building, and in interplay with the hulls, an open-air museum of unique maritime character is formed.

Decommissioned in 1993, the former Zeche Zollverein became UNESCO World Heritage industrial monument in 2001 and a new masterplan developed by OMA was completed in 2010. The refurbishment of the former Kohlenwäsche followed, as well as the Zollverein Cube by SANAA. Latest step on this journey is the set up of the Coking Plant Monument Path. Therefor five exhibition pavilions are being placed ahead, inside, on top and next to the monumental structure of the former coking plant. The one shown here marks the start, the other ones will follow after the ongoing renovation during the next years.

Symbolic for Kamp-Lintfort, the site offers two completely different spaces. Referring to the former industrial structure of the site, the magnificent Friedrich-Heinrich-Allee is further developed by large-scale buildings. Whereas the development on the park side is small-scale, offers density and greenery, individual residential qualities and a clearly articulated edge to the sprawl of the park.

After 20 years of intensive daily use, the venue of the Grenzlandtheater was in need of a vital cure. In addition to the age-related renewal, the main task was to strengthen its presence at the Elisengalerie, which is otherwise used as a shopping arcade with an unbridled variety of colors and shapes due to the different retail stores. The new appearance focuses accordingly on the essentials. The foyer becomes the shopping arcade's peep-show stage, and the stage once again becomes the centerpiece of the theater hall.
