House of culture Kals

After the teardown of two existing buildings, the new culture house was built on a cramped building site on the Kalser Landesstraße. The construction is made of 50er vertically perforated bricks with lime-cement interior plaster and a smooth two-layer plaster surface on the outside, whose color scheme is oriented to the neighbors.
