Andy Gijbels of NANO architects did what he does best: design a contemporary house that fits seamless into the inspiring surroundings. The result is a modern home with an open but nevertheless pleasant character. A house in which, wherever you are, consistently connects the inside with the outside.

The privileged location of this house, in a forest area, already provides architectural inspiration. The sand-coloured brick façade, with its natural patina, refers to the subsoil in these parts. At the front, the brickwork is combined with aluminium volumes, including a free-standing wall that prevents people from looking into the living space from the street. The black-brown tone (RAL 8022) of the aluminium harmonises beautifully with the sand-coloured stone and looks more natural than black or anthracite grey. The rather closed façade guarantees privacy without blocking out the daylight. 

Glass and aluminium pivot doors

Pivot door system made from high quality anodized aluminium available in 4 decorative finishes, black, silver, bronze and stainless steel.

Anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts the metal surface into a decorative, durable, corrosion-resistant finish.

The frame can be fitted with any 6 or 8 mm thick tempered glass for endless design purposes.
