The Fortress of Delden in The Netherlands by [delacourt][vanbeek]

Recently 5 houses have been delivered in Delden. The project borders on two special landscape elements. On the north side a green space with beautiful oak trees (the green). On the south side the water and the canal. The quay is toothed. This is reminiscent of old fortifications, the starting point for the plan “The Fortress of Delden”.

The inspiration for a fortress can be seen in the materialising. The houses are made of solid bricks and oak from the nearby Twickel estate. The storage rooms are also made of oak so that they form a whole with the wooden details in the houses.

Every home has a wide view on the landscape, the canal or the green. The staggered balconies and the wide view make the house very suitable for living on the 1st floor. Due to the flexible layout, the ground floor can be used as a practice room or home office. The two separate outdoor spaces and a reserved space for a lift also make the house easy to split into the upper and lower dwellings and thus make life-course resistant.
