Herbestemming en uitbreiding Theresia Kapel gepresenteerd

"Hart van Hoogkerk"

Zaterdag 10 November 2012 vereneging Hart van Hoogkerk en Uitgeverij Westermare presenteren samen met buro EMA het project  voor herbestemming en uitbreiding van Theresia Kapel te Hoogkerk.

"Het plan behelst een aanbouw aan de rechterkant van de kerk. In de zijbeuk wordt een kantoor, toiletruimte en een keuken gerealiseerd. De zijbeuk krijgt een doorgang tot de kerk onder het middelste raam. Het publiek kan dan via de zijbeuk het gebouw betreden. De zijbeuk krijgt in het dak een lichtstraat zodat in de kerk het daglicht kan blijven vallen. De kerkbanken zullen grotendeels verdwijnen uit de kerk. Een aantal blijft behouden. Zo wordt de ruimte in de kerk makkelijker te gebruiken."

Casa WvdK gepubliceerd

"Een dynamisch gebouw aan de Rjochte Grou"

Artikel over het bijzondere architectuurproject Casa WvdK  in Leeuwarder Courant door architectuurhistoricus Peter Karstkarel.
