This modern city house in villa style is characterised by straight lines and symmetry. It shows the perfect way to combine living and working under a single roof. The solution is a cubic building corpus whose appearance already suggests a separation of functional areas: the offices are located on the ground floor, while the upper storey is reserved for living.
This storey is slightly recessed, which makes the design airy and elegant. The echelon floor and the combined plaster and wood timber frame façade give the house a horizontal structure which is further emphasised by the colour contrast between the ground and upper floor.
With its 113m², the upper floor offers generous space for a whole family. It is reached by a large free-standing stairway. The ground floor accommodates the offices or practice. This is a perfect house for doctors, lawyers, tax consultants, architects and other professionals with similar space needs. The clear separation of areas also keeps public visitors separate from the family area.
