Villa Willemsdorp
De Pinte, Belgium
The building plot is situated in a typical Flemish residential
development with detached single-family houses that almost
monotonously follow the building regulations of rectangular
building volumes in reddish brick and gabled roofs of ceramic
roof tiles.
In order to give the house character within this context,
the building volume touches the limits of the regulations
concerning volume and roof shape. This free interpretation
leads to a sculptural volumetric composition with unexpected
sloping surfaces.
This volume is accentuated afterwards by large articulated
incisions to allow for daylight openings, entrances, and a
generous south facing covered terrace.
Material wise, the house is entirely clad in red variegated flat
ceramic tiles, with bronze coloured joinery accentuating the
volume incisions.
The backward leaning street elevation has quite an introverted
appearance while the house opens up on the other elevations
with a completely glazed garden elevation at the terrace and
a pronounced dormer window and a constellation of smaller
incisions on the side elevations.
The plan organisation on the upper floor is quite traditional
with the different rooms along a generously dimensioned
corridor. On the ground floor, two zones are strictly
separated by a floor-to-ceiling cabinet with integrated doors
that stretches the full width of the house: a generously
dimensioned living room with half open kitchen on the south
side and service rooms on the north side.
The interior leaves the loadbearing structure exposed with
painted block work and plank formed concrete. The plank
formwork of the concrete ceiling is mirrored by the oak
floorboards.
