Realization of a villa in Burgh-Haamstede, the Netherlands for a private client.
The villa is built on a rectangular plot of 34,75x50 metres. This plot is enclosed on 3 sides by
similar plots with freestanding houses. On the back side (North-East) of the plot lies an
existing bank with tall trees that should remain.
All the program takes place in one level to optimize the accessibility. From the program
the kitchen, dining and living are all orientated on this bank and the garden around it. This
creates a transparent garden facade with a maximum allowed width (from local restrictions)
of 20 metres. To create a living with a lot of natural light, a patio is designed on the other side
of the living towards the South. The patio is a private outdoor space, that is a
comfortable outdoor seating all year round.
On the other side of the patio is the main bedroom. By enclosing the patio with a full
glass facade, there is an unique view from the master bedroom through the patio and
living towards the existing bank in the back of the garden. The roof of the living has an extra
high ceiling in the shape of a sloped roof under different angles. The shape of roof together
with the shape of the patio creates very unique indoor and outdoor spaces and great
perspectives towards the existing bank and the tall trees that are specific for this natural
environment.
The villa is very well insulated and warmed in a ecologically friendly manner by a heat pump
and two fire places for wood. On the flat roof of the villa 16 solar panels are placed for the
delivery of electricity. The rest of the roof is realized with a green roof for optimized
insulation and water management.
