With the redesign of the council chamber at Dortmund’s City Hall, a space has been created that reflects the evolving needs of public governance – openness, dialogue, and design precision. A glazed partition connects the enlarged chamber to the adjacent civic hall, conveying accessibility and transparency. The interior concept continues into the neighbouring meeting rooms, where a consistent design language and refined materials define the atmosphere. In collaboration with Beck Objekteinrichtungen, Walter K. furnished the entire space – with furniture that stands for craftsmanship, clarity and lasting quality.
