architecture
The three-wing complex was designed in line with reform architecture by Wilhelm Thiele and built in 1912/13 by Bielefeld city planning officer Friedrich Schultz . The structure of the reinforced concrete construction on the long front facing the rafter castle determines the shape. The strongly profiled buttresses and also the flat arched central projection structure the front. Another, higher one with four narrow window strips is added to the risalit. The areas between the pillars are open in windows on both floors . The geometric-decorative details are made of concrete, the surfaces of artificial stone plaster. The high, hood-shaped, arched hipped roof is equipped with large studio windows. The subordinate courtyard sides are simply designed. On the southeast wing there is a polygonal studio building with a strut construction. The spatial arrangement with the stairwell and the following large studios has largely been preserved.
The building is now a listed building .
