renovation project in Antwerp (B)

The typical plan lay-out with a collection of small-scaled separate rooms is continued in this renovation project that respects the room-based lay-out. Every room has its own floor finishing and ceiling type so the different rooms get an even more distinct character. Large openings in walls, ceilings and facades ensure that the different rooms have a strong spatial and visual connection. Daylight enters in unexpected places and visual links exist between spaces that normally don’t have a visual relation. The openings between the different rooms are clear visual frames and function as a passage, the white floor strips between the rooms constituting a threshold between the rooms. A series of symmetry-axes structures the collection of rooms. The concrete terrace in the back is an outdoor room set between the house and the garden.
