This is also the facade that the first and lasting impression on the unsuspecting careless or even architecture interested passerby will leave. Listed façade has been given a subtle nod which lays the foundation for further morphological development of the property as we will see later. For specification of the entrance is locally a bite out of the volume taken as a welcoming gesture. Moreover, here you are protected against all kinds of meteorological events.
The facade on the west side is almost completely blind, a facade after the garage [annex future workshop] provides daylight. This is a brick voile hidden from view and therefore plays no role in the facade composition. The dakschilden jump further into the eye, the windows seem jumbled in applied! These trompe-l’oeil, however, is a direct result of the subtle angular and the requirement from the zoning for a minimum roof pitch of 30 º to achieve. Once inside a spatial spectacle unfolds.

Strategically placed skylights provide the zone of daylight – leveling course placed in the slope of the roof slope. The opening up of the rooms on the floor are in the same zone.
