Fire Department Sand in Taufers

At the entrance of the Tauferer Ahrntal, at 870 meter above sea level, the fire station can be seen as a new golden landmark of Sand in Taufers. The building is mainly characterized by its unique and straight functionality, which shows in a clear and simple shape. Short ways have received the highest due to their crucial influence during the efficient procedures of an operation. The building has a valuable appearance, in which superfluous decorations were deliberately avoided.
As the process of reduction went on, shape, materials and colors came to the fore.

A playful and thus surprising attribute is the golden yellow plaster, roughly splattered onto the facade, creating a specific appeal to the new fire station.
