A simple zadelkop house was extended with a living space.
A simple zadelkop house was extended with a living space. The existing houses do not respect their surroundings to. In the bowl of the stream by expansion Winsum we designed in shape and experience focuses on the water.
The existing house is a house called zadelkap. A simple house that has no relation with the nice T-junction of two rivers. The house is not the best use but the beautiful views and themes in the area and the plot.
The principles of design to optimize the living, working and living environment. This is translated into the care of an appropriate accommodation facilities room and adequate management of the environment taking advantage should be in the area.
We can then think of expanding in the same form and structure of the current house. This will lead to an agglomeration of masses that the environment in the immediate area affected. We will need to find a unique solution that does not break existing small scale, this money also for the data area.
We chose to introduce a new third front as an entrance from the water, and the shape of the situation increased. By now the loose laid visual extension of the existing buildings, existing widely recognized and can be made close to the third toward the situation. A good materialization of the volumes is essential for the proper ratios of the masses on the plot and its surroundings. Therefore we have chosen a bright light and transparent structure. It is a horizontal emphasis which reflects the environment. Whereupon the superstructure formed with an accent window. The lookout on the water. The balcony is created by the recess gives privacy but open to the outside inwards. This is the bedroom but spared the privacy bathe in the light.
This articulation in the building, the openness of the situation and respects the existing buildings. This leads to a building which, despite its volume, manifested by a small building that is not competing with the house but complementary.
These principles are therefore in the design enhanced by its unity in diversity, that mass appeal and meets the needs of the client but in its architecture occupies a clear statement that results in the current presence of this structure and strengthened.
