DESCRIPTION |

|
 At the boarder of Almere City a new living area is planned directly near the water site. The urban layout offers a high level of privacy to the inhabitants, because the individual housing blocks start to free themselves up from their surrounding. Void spaces realise maximal distances and create sight lines between the various housing blocks. This is the ideal location for living where everybody can express his individuality by creating his own house.
 The initial idea was to create a maximal flexibility and to secure individuality. The house consists of a basic package, which can be extended and elaborated depending on personal preferences and lifestyle of the client.
The basic package consists of 2 concrete modules of 6 meters in the width, 10 meters in the depth and 3 meters in the height. Hereby the first floor is shifted about 2.50m in direction of the length to receive automatically a balcony.
The optional package is developed to extend the basic housing type according to individual needs. It offers the possibility to elaborate and increase its volumetric potential. The construction consists of a prefabricated steel frame box of 2.5 by 6 meters. It is “plugged-in” the basic package at the needed position. This box is cladded with wood to turn into a balcony, winter garden or extra-room. |
