When architecture disappears into the landscape...
This patio house behind a stately townhouse has been completely renovated and transformed. On a small plot, a compact three-story structure was created, maximizing the relationship between interior and exterior. An outdoor staircase connects the basement, ground floor, and first floor. Together with landscape architect Filip Van Damme and the client, a careful search unfolded for intimate spaces, places of rest, and visual axes aimed at creating an exceptional sensory experience.
The harmony of materials, their tactile qualities and patina, along with the color palette and the scents of the plant selection, is striking. Garden walls and plant screens form a visual and acoustic buffer for the surrounding homes and nearby railway. On the opposite side, the roof garden opens up and connects seamlessly with the hidden allotment gardens in the green inner block.
