Residential, Antwerp
This property is designed in one of the pavilions in “Het Groen Kwartier”, on the site of the former military hospital.
The client, an art director and a psychotherapist, asked for a home where the openness of space, the applicability of different arrangements and the respect for the specific characteristics of the original building were preserved in the contemporary design.
The ground floor, the former hospital room, became the living space. The kitchen is placed in an adjoining room which also gives access to the garden. Outside, in the formerly covered hallway of the building, a loose but closed structure is serving as an office space and therapy room. Night functions are organized in the basement.
