paul de ruiter architects: villa v

‘villa v’ by paul de ruiter architects is situated close to bloemendaal, on the edge of the kennemer dunes in the netherlands.
the structure is built into its surrounding landscape, connecting the building’s interior with the outside space. this is a result of the fact that the ground floor of the dwelling is encapsulated within the slope of the hill in which it sits. a green roof covered in moss-sedum further blends the house into the natural environment, making inhabitants of the villa feel as if the home and surrounding landscape are one.
both the north and south façades are made of large glass sliding sections allowing light to flood into the interior from both sides. in the heart of the villa, there is a patio which further enhances illumination throughout the home’s rooms during daylight hours.
‘villa v’ features concrete floors and retailing walls. it has a balanced ventilation system, and is heated and cooled by means of a heat pump. the various woods used in the building’s construction are FSC-certified

Why is it that all the “cool” architecture on this blog is hard, cold, sterile and unlike anything an actual human being would live in?
Kim I totally disagree. I’d live in this building given half the chance – and don’t find it sterile at all!
it’s not a passive house. if it’s not a “passive” then it’s not a house at all.
I find this architecture design interesting. Hope they could post the photo of the completed building.

way to go, chris! respect!
As the builder of the project we are very pleased with the design. And if people are interested in developments of the construction they can follow us on: http://www.scholz.nl/bouw/projecten/villa_vermeulen_park_brederode
We will update text and photo’s of the construction every 2 to 3 weeks.
Kim,
I think everybody would be interested in your theory dealing with what an actual human being would live in…
