Object+Product: Don Bosco Youth Welfare Office in Mainz
In the 2008 competition for the replacement building of the Don Bosco Diocesan Youth Office, the firm Angela Fritsch Architekten BDA submitted, alongside the final plans, a minimalist volume model made of subtly grained, untreated light wood. However minimalist this model may have seemed at first glance, it succinctly represented the architects' central design concept: the building's appearance, both inside and out, should be defined by the use of untreated wood.
