MFA Koningshof
The heart of the Koningshof arts centre is formed by an atrium linking the library to a music school, a meeting centre, multifunctional rooms, a theatre and medical care facilities. The atrium is the central meeting area in which the bar takes the form of a copper wind instrument. The interaction between voids and wall openings creates dynamic sight lines.
Part of the Koningshof is the newly rebuilt library, a striking corner building. The library entrance is a gate in the curved wall. The building's central axis is intersected by a slender bridge that connects the exhibition area with various offices. A striking copper-clad bar- area also serves as a footbridge to the music school.
