Minimalistic living in the dune landscape

Close to Bloemendaal, on the edge of the Kennemer dunes, the future site of Villa V is situated. A sustainable home that follows a minimalistic design and shows respect for man and nature alike. Villa V is the first villa to be built in Park Brederode, a unique residential area where the existing flora and fauna are given full rein.

MODEST LUXURY
The villa owes its honest character to its unique sculptural form, which can be said to disappear in the landscape. This connects the building’s interior with the outside space, resulting in a spectacular residential experience. Most of the structure is invisible thanks to its green roof, to the fact that the entire home is with cellar and to the fact that half of the ground floor is encapsulated in the slope of the hill. Both the north and south façades are glass, with exceptionally large sliding sections. In the heart of the villa, one finds a patio that ensures optimum daylight illumination in all the home’s rooms.

SUSTAINABLE
The villas that will be built in the park comply with stricter EPC requirements than those established by the Building Regulations. On the one hand, Villa V has a robust underground design, with concrete floors and retaining walls. On the other hand, the design of the villa is extremely transparent and light on the ground and first floors, with a glass and timber-frame construction. The various woods used in the building are FSC-certified. A minimal approach to the materialisation and detailing of the building is a core value of the design. Furthermore, the villa has a balanced ventilation system and the home is heated and cooled by means of a heat pump. The fifth façade of the villa – the roof – will be covered with moss-sedum. The large expanses of glass and the patio will result in maximum daylighting and will give the inhabitants the feeling that the villa and the surrounding landscape are one.
