Glass Extention
The large-scale renovation of an existing home in Best has come about by chance. The original, very outdated house, built in the 1950s, was called for demolition by years of vacancy. Until one of our clients decided to purchase the house and renovate it completely. The particularly large garden and the existing characteristic garden shed were important reasons for purchasing the property + house. One of the issues that certainly needed to be addressed was the open façade on the street side and the closed façade on the garden side.
Only glass, no colomns
The rear of the house is equipped with a completely transparent glass facade. Different materials have been used to distinguish the volumes from each other. For example, the white stucco in the main volume provides mass.

material
The rear of the house is equipped with a completely transparent glass facade. Different materials have been used to distinguish the volumes from each other. For example, the white stucco in the main volume provides mass. In addition, minimalist glass window frames have been used to unify the house with the extension. The masonry as a dry run provides protection against the summer sun and offers the low winter sun to enter the main living areas. The wooden cladding was used to connect the different rooms.
Glass bridge between volumes
The new design has created a particularly open living environment, both inside and outside. In addition, a lot of privacy was created at the front of the house. Privacy was created by the use of window frames behind facade cladding.
