concept

This development project involves seven terraced houses with a communal underground car park. Each house will have its own entrance and garden facing onto a communal garden.

Project Description

Two-storey construction, saddleback roofs and the use of rustic terracotta roof tiles will mean that the building will blend perfectly with the predominantly brickwork architecture in the Baarle town centre. In addition to classic elements, the building will also feature contemporary cut-outs in a boldly delineated facade. This will establish a contrast between the coarse, scale-like outer shell and the smooth crepi inner shell. The front facade will be south facing so that the cut-outs will allow sunlight to penetrate far into the homes on each floor. They will also provide a well-oriented, additional outdoor terrace. The larger cut-outs are intended as an access to the car lift down to the underground car park, as a passageway to the communal garden and as entranceways to each home.
