The Italian Renaissance-style house, built in 1887, is a listed building that is used as a daycare center. The entrance with the sandstone staircase has been covered by a new canopy. The design of the railings is contemporary and picks up on the façade’s grainy structure. The stairwell was upgraded for fire protection. The building surfaces in the common rooms were restored, and the sanitary areas were completely renewed. The color concept deals playfully with the existing diversity. The rooms are adapted to the building in different pastel hues. The recycling of materials was a high priority.
