The new building of the old people's meeting place, Rickertsen House, fulfils several urbanistic demands. On the one hand, it serves as a spatial urban link between the Primary School and the grounds of Sachsenwald High School, alongside which the building forms an accompanying flank. On the other, the long, extended body of the building separates the public area of the car park from the old people's private garden situated to the south west. With its two-storey "head" and its entrance, the new building is orientated to the adjacent free area to the north, which is to become a central, multi-functional plaza where schoolchildren, sports enthusiasts, old people and hikers can meet. The plaza can be used for school and old people's functions, as a meeting place for young people in the afternoons and as an open-air cinema in the evenings. The parking area can also be incorporated, for example, as an area for a flea-market in one comprehensive assembly-concept. In this way, the meeting place for old people is fully and naturally integrated into the daily life of school, sports hall and hikers' rambling route. Gravel walkways fan across the whole area, linking the different zones and turning them into a campus for all the generations
