Text description provided by the architects. The renowned Nobel Laureate Meetings are the most distinguished among the various conferences that enjoy the flair of the island town of Lindau. Over the years however the conference venue was no longer meeting modern demands. Thus an architectural competition for the reconstruction and extension of the conference center was launched.

原有的会议大厅建造于1981年 ， 本次竞赛对其进行了翻新与改造 ， 将原有位于Zwanzigerstrasse的狭窄不显眼入口重新放置至会议大厅的东侧 ， 面向全新的广场 ， 这座广场从街道延伸而出 ， 一直朝向湖滨步道 。 除了竣工于2017年的多层竖向停车库之外 ， 本次竞赛还要求建筑师为港口船员提供消防站、办公空间、淋浴设备 。

The competition offered the unique chance to redesign the layout of the conference hall built in 1981 relocating the entrance from the narrow and unattractive situation on Zwanzigerstrasse to the east side of the hall opening onto a spacious new plaza extending from the street to the lake promenade. In addition to the multilevel parking garage (completed in 2017) which was to be erected across the plaza from the Inselhalle the competition also required an integrated fire station office space and shower facilities for the harbor master and boat owners.
