Hooghout is a residential building that was a joint private commission developed by the construction group Het Hooghout. The building contains homes, a commercial space and an underground car park.

Hooghout is a communal residential project for 22 households, each with its own requirements, possibilities and compositions. The low building element on the Ridderspoorweg offers room for short-stay apartments with hotels, restaurants and bars in the plinth.

Hooghout stands for synergy; the whole is more than the sum of its parts. There was a lot of room in the entire design process for personal requirements, for large and small, high and low, shell and finished off. However, there is also a collective atmosphere in which all these individual elements come together.

The atmosphere is robust, in keeping with the rugged environment of a former port area in transition. The atmosphere is also warm. It is a place that is pleasant to live, where you will feel at home, both inside and outside.
