Rebuild of exterior & interior

This family house "La Cabana" was originally build in 1960 and housed a family of 12. When the original owners moved, it left an ingenious designed but yet worn-out house.

The original floor plan has a split level set up, leaving the house with multiple small rooms, each on its own unique level. Details such as hidden window frames and no roof edge, give this property a clean cut appearance.

With the renovation these elements were enhanced by designing a minimal yet grand addition to the former introvert house. The house doubled its volume, by extending its original shape in glass. This glass addition brings light and a magic forrest view, as well as spacious living, giving the house a second life.

Rebuild of exterior & interior

This majestic villa on the grand Koningin Wilhelminalaan was build in 1919. The size of the property makes it less suitable for family life nowadays, and therefore housed various businesses before two families fell in love with it.

The new design houses two families who live their lives separately but in harmony with each other. The grand entrance is restored, after which two entrance doors lead to the two homes.

New property

This house was originally half the volume of the current home, when a young family fell in love with it.

Not to change its iconic appearance, a volume was added to the back. During the design process it was decided to build the house completely new, though the original iconic shape remained.
