Nestled in an expansive landscape with mature trees, this Belgian country house combines historical substance with contemporary openness. The architecture thrives on the interplay of authentic materials. Whitewashed brickwork and a classic red tiled roof meet exposed woodwork and solid timber beams inside, lending the rooms a sheltering depth. Light natural stone on the floors and calm, earthy tones create a warm atmosphere that absorbs and reflects the soft daylight. The wide garden with its clear water pool and swaying grasses forms the scenic framework into which the building integrates with natural ease.

Fluid transitions through minimal windows®

The large format sliding systems by Keller minimal windows® open the historical building fabric towards the garden with visual lightness. The precise, dark rectilinear profiles fit seamlessly into the solid wooden frames of the facade and form a controlled contrast to the rustic materiality of the house. Without thresholds, the stone interior floor extends onto the outdoor terrace, allowing the physical boundaries between the sheltered interior and the surrounding nature to dissolve fluidly. The floor to ceiling glazing brings daylight deep into the living space, frames the landscape in clear proportions and combines sophisticated technical execution with a calm, spatial expansiveness.
