The renovation of the municipal depot in Allschwil is creating a new public hub that combines urban infrastructure, childcare, and inclusive community life. On the upper floor, the space freed up through optimized use will house a daycare center and an integration center, offering flexible learning and gathering spaces. The newly designed urban balcony connects indoor and outdoor areas, opens up a spacious terrace for play, relaxation, and informal interaction, and establishes a direct line of sight and movement between the public park, the neighborhood, and the interior spaces. The cafeteria, located next to the park, serves as the heart of the building, offering views of the greenery and reinforcing its public character. On the formerly closed west facade facing Pastorenweg, a series of large-scale glass and sliding elements creates an inviting gesture, provides transparency, and facilitates the transition from the neighborhood, playground, and maintenance yard to an open house for everyone. It also invites the neighborhood’s residents to network, relax, and initiate community activities in the public space.
