Connecting the neighbourhood


 

A unique development of 44 dwellings on a beautiful location next to the water!

A place where a former school  has been empty for years will flourish again with a green and energy efficient residential building. A friendly architecture as well as an openness towards the surrounding green and houses has been an important task.

The composition of the volume results into a building that is imbedded in the environment. The volume is a translation of its surroundings. It manifests itself as a link between the different heights and typologies of the neighbourhood.

A part of the plot will be given to the public: A wide and green strip with a lot of trees to provide a place where biodiversity and the green character of the area will be enhanced.

There is a great variety of houses for a wide range of users. Conversations have led to the fact that mostly elderly people who actually live in this neighbourhood are quite interested. The building fits very well to the needs of these users.
