Located at the end of a ribbon development, House WA will be built as a refuge from the bustle of the busy surroundings. This 400 sqm. house consists of two bracketed volumes set inside of a rural plot. Anchored to stone platforms and surrounded by lush trees, the house aims to function as a pavilion that weave the site into an inhabitable whole. Living room, dining and master bedroom are contained in the north-west volume, while the south-east volume contains the entrance, kitchen and other bedrooms.
This work-live extension is designed with a shift of 4 volumes carefully positioned around an indoor patio. The extension results in a playful structure in harmony with the existing house. A sufficient transparency of the spaces on the first floor allows the park landscape to be present in a powerful and changing way throughout the house. The entire house is built in recycled brick and carefully finished with bespoke aluminum profiles.
This single family house is characterized by a layout that allows for spaces and functions to merge. The architecture explores the idea to juxtapose volumes in order to create a fluidity of spaces around two enclosed courtyards and an open field. There’s no real barrier between exterior and interior. Landscape and nature blend in seamlessly.
More of this project will be featured soon.

In this house, the idea of landscaping is at the heart of the concept while maintaining maximum permeability on the site. The proportions of the different spaces, their interrelationships and natural light define the atmosphere and create a variety of intriguing scenarios.
Engawa house is located alongside ‘De Leie’ river in the hearth of ‘Sint-Martens-Latem’. The house appears as a long horizontal building, carefully positioned on the plot in harmony with its natural landscape. It consists of Two rectilinear volumes that lie parallel to each other.
This pavilion was designed as a horizontal and elegant volume with a kinked side facing the garden. This movement extends the natural flow of the winding green buffer and opens up towards the garden. The terrace and canopy provide shelter from the weather in a central location on the plot.
