Architect Niko Wauters designed this minimalistic low-energy home for his own family.
This spacious home was designed on a small plot (8 acres), and is designed around contrasts.
Open to the sun & the garden, but closed to the street & the north.
The black volume on the ground-floor contains the living areas, all connected but visual separated. The night part is located on the upper floor in the semi-floating white volume.
Through pivotating glass doors & skylights, daylight illuminates the whole home. At night, the moon is a subtle nightlight in the upper corridor.
Because of its well thought design, this home uses almost no energy on a yearly basis. The small amount of energy necessary for heating the home during winter, is produced by a geothermal heathpump and solar panels. All produced heat is reused inside the house (even heat from waste-water from the shower).
This project shows that low energy design & minimalistic architecture can go hand in hand.
