The villa features wide terraces and open-plan living spaces that flow effortlessly into a spacious garden, making outdoor living a central part of daily life.

In a secluded bay near the Gaasperplas, this fully bio-based and circular pavilion of the Amsterdam Angling Association will be built. Arriving by foot or boat; the angular shape of the building, with its large, steep roof, will catch your eye. On closer inspection, you will notice that the entire building is made of wood: modified pinewood planks resembling shingles cover the roof. The shutters, the window frames and the modular construction are also made of pinewood and together will create a lovely natural habitat for angling enthousiasts and visitors. The large windows and doors on the ground floor emphasise the feeling of being in the middle of nature. If you look up, you can see the top of the building through the large void from which plants will hang into the restaurant below.

After a positive concept permit application we have now handed in the full permit and can’t wait to continue working on this unique project.

Close to the center of Utrecht the construction has started on this 1920s house. The extension at the back will be one of a kind, with curved glass and curved window frames made from Accoya wood.

Check out our newest house extension for a project in Amstelveen. Sustainability was one of the key factors of the design: the walls and roof are from wood construction, the facade cladding and window frames are built from Accoya wood and the roof contains a “natuurdak”: a very biodiverse type of green roof that can store and re-use large amounts of rain water.

Design-wise this extension is really one of a kind: the existing extension was demolished and replaced for a 6.2x6.5m open space layout acting as a living area and gallery space combined. Just one piece of furniture, a modular sofa, attracts all the attention in the heart of this space. Other unique features in this space are the planter which is integrated in the concrete foundation and the high row of windows along one of the 6.5m long side walls.

On the top floor the extension is set back and houses one bedroom and an office space. The large square shaped windows offer views on the Amsterdam Forest and the green roof of the floor below.

The interior spaces of the Little Big Bungalow offer a sense of spaciousness within the compact shape of the home.

We designed the home in such a way that spaces with wide open views to the garden are alternated with more intimate spaces offering different ways of connecting the interior with the exterior.

Spring is in the air! The garden of Halcyon House is full on blossoming and slowly coming to life. Could you imagine waking up and looking out to a garden like this?

We’re excited to share these first photos of our latest finished project: The Little Big Bungalow! This compact wooden family home is built up out of four compact volumes connected by a central cross. The wood-clad volumes are placed on a raised mound making sure the home stands high and dry while overlooking its surroundings. The ‘floating’ corner of the living room volume is able to fully slide open to create an open connection to the adjacent terrace that runs around this corner of the home. While this bungalow home is modest in size, the interior spaces feel surprisingly spacious due to the high ceilings created by the playful roofscape. This roofscacpe not only introduces spaciousness on the inside of the home but also accommodates the PV cells and makes it possible to centrally collect rainwater to be used during times of drought. The wooden windows and doors have aluminium covering on the exterior making them last for a long time while at the same time creating a warm atmosphere within the interior spaces. Together with the other wooden elements within the interior we were able to create a natural atmosphere that will form the ideal home for this young family in the years to come!  General contractor: Goedhart Bouw B.V.
