Soil & Soul Studio
Nestled within the verdant embrace of a mature farmhouse community, the Soil and Soul Studio emerges as a compelling archetype for sustainable living in the modern age. Conceived as a tranquil sanctuary for a work-from-home bachelor, this thoughtfully designed studio apartment transcends conventional construction by seamlessly weaving together the wisdom of traditional building practices with the ingenuity of contemporary ecological design. The result is a compact yet remarkably spacious abode that minimizes its environmental footprint while forging an intimate and enriching connection with the surrounding natural landscape.

Natura Gardens
The 30-acre Natura Gardens incorporates 10 acres of restored wetlands, striking a delicate balance between community needs and environmental responsibility. The restored wetlands became an opportunity to demonstrate how communities can serve as the custodians of scarce environmental resources. The site plan integrates the wetlands so residents can experience the seasonal changes of this essential ecosystem. To pay homage to the cultural history of living around wetlands, the community’s open space features several chickees, the thatched-roof shelters of the indigenous Seminole Tribe.

Biobased Barn House
The Biobased Barn House is located in the nature reserve 'Esvelderbeek' and therefore had to comply with strict regulations. The zoning plan prescribed a traditional form and responsible choice of materials. The clients went one step further; it was their express wish to build a simple, light and spacious house with natural biobased materials. The house takes its shape from the 'Hallenhuis', an authentic Veluwe farmhouse that used to be common in the area. The project consists of 1 volume with various functions such as living, storage and garage. The construction has the original Hallenhuis principle with the anchor-beam trusses as its basis. These trusses, made of European glued spruce, are visible in the interior wherever possible.
