villa knaepen

Sint-Martens-Latem

Concept

This newly constructed villa was designed to be a family home with separate areas for parents and children. The basis for the design was the classic typology of terracing with a single open side and a saddleback roof. The villa was built in brick with a steel roof truss with contrasting areas of transparency and massiveness.
