In 1979 the 1st Federal Assembly of the SPV (Other Political Association) Die Grünen was held. People present included Joseph Beuys and Petra Kelly . The result of the meeting was the founding resolution of the party The Greens.
In 1981 the house was extensively modernized. The concrete with the filigree wood structure was partially removed and the facade, which was originally made of exposed concrete, was painted with paint.
