A two-family house with an integrated workshop on an existing plot in a rural setting near Bruges. The new two-storey volume is built on a modular grid: a steel structure with infill walls. This grid system brings two dwellings and a shared workspace together into one coherent whole, without compromising privacy or spatial quality.

At the same time, the building remains flexible: rooms can easily be reconfigured to suit the needs of future generations. The rhythm of the facade and the yellow tiles enter into a subtle dialogue with the landscape. A continuous canopy and a glazed plinth strengthen the relationship between interior and garden. Sustainability lies both in this adaptability and in the building services: solar panels, heat pumps and rainwater harvesting make the house almost self-sufficient.
