The courtyard is an open space of encounter and communal togetherness. In the middle of the courtyard there is a large, shady tree in the center, a small fountain and possibilities to sit. The foyer is the heart of the town hall. It internally connects all uses with each other and serves as a central meeting point within the house. Thus, the foyer creates the important direct connection from the north to the inner courtyard.

The community hall serves as a central function room and is one of the most important areas of the parish. The room receives, through the light-flooded relation to different directions, a particularly inviting and friendly atmosphere.

The supporting structure of the roof has a formative and space-forming effect on the hall. The west window offers a view to the trees and creates a special light effect through the lamellar structure in front of the window. Children and music rooms can be found on the ground floor and are also oriented towards the courtyard. The youth is an important part of the community center, bright and inviting situated upstairs and connected by an internal staircase directly to the community rooms and the foyer on the ground floor.

The two rental apartments are oriented to the east via a balcony.

This building was built in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way with visible and natural wooden solid walls as load-bearing construction.Due to the energetically high-quality enclosure surfaces and the ventilation systems with heat recovery, the building loses little energy. The Heilandskirche is characterized by a simple and modest aura. The deliberately rough surface of the wood in the new building harmonizes with the coarse plaster structure and the clear proportions of the church building. The new building is subordinated to the church.

The interior wood surfaces contrast with the deep offset silver-gray wooden facade on the outside. The appearance of the building is characterized by large openings to the inner courtyard. The rough-sawn wood façade was painted silver-gray in different color shades and executed with different battens, creating a shadow play on the wall surface. With the resolution of the vertical wooden shuttering in front of window elements, the incident sunlight is filtered and a glimmer of light is created.
