Villa AB1

B-too as Architects

Modern architecture goes hand in hand with traditional elements

This beautiful villa, located on the edge of a picturesque village in North Brabant, forms a harmonious unity with its surroundings. The extensive plot, surrounded by lush meadows and authentic farms, provides the perfect spot for this villa.

The inspiration for this villa is taken from the old long-fronted farmhouses that are characteristic of the region. A striking feature is the roof, which starts at a height of 1.5 meters, which adds a charming and characteristic element to the design. This architectural choice reflects the traditional architectural style of the past, while at the same time giving the home a contemporary twist.

Special material
An essential feature of the villa is the use of materials that are a modern interpretation of the building materials that were used in the past. The roof is covered with thatch, adding to the rural charm of the villa and integrating seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

The facade of the villa is clad in black burnt wood, a contemporary material that combines the warmth of wood with a sleek and modern look. This choice of cladding adds a touch of rustic elegance to the exterior, while providing a unique and contemporary character.

This villa is a wonderful example of how modern architecture can go hand in hand with traditional elements and natural materials. By seamlessly adapting to the environment, this home not only offers a luxurious and comfortable living space, but also contributes to the aesthetics and character of the countryside in North Brabant.
