Contemporary extension of a house architecture

De Zilk, Netherlands
Designer: derksen|windt architecten
Contributed by: derksen_windt_architecten

For the extension of this house in the famous Dutch flowerbulb area, derksen|windt architecten made a design based on the experience of the transition from the inside to the outside. The old house (the inside) and the garden with the flowerbulb fields behind it (the outside) are beautifully connected by this distinctive and sharply detailed extension. Everything in this design is about the experience of the clients and their connection with the outside. When entering the dwelling in the existing house and walking into the extension, with every step one takes, different views to the garden will continuously present itself. The placement of openings and walls is carefully composed, with everything being designed according to proportions to one another. For example, walls are made slightly thicker than constructively needed to achieve the desired harmony. Partly based on the ideas of inspiring twentieth century architect-theorist Dom Hans van der Laan.
