Dynamo

Dynamo is a regional institution for youth welfare and organizes different activities like music, sports, workshops, and other cultural activities. It also offers information for young people on schooling, help with housing, financial administration support, finding a job, etc. The building has much to offer: a large pop music stage, a fitness centre, lounge-area, several bars, meeting space and information desks. All these functions together make it a very dense community-based spot in an urban setting. The volume is a composition of glass and concrete elements which have 12 different color tones and opens up at the corner of 2 streets. This entrance leads to the central meeting hall, the atrium, which is at the same time one of the stages used for performances and acts. The large ‘urban window’ gives pedestrians a view inside and invites them to join. Everyone can organize their own party, gathering, concert or sports-event themselves in this multifunctional building.
