The original house dates from 1959, the home of the current occupant’s grandmother. A typical Belgian subdivision house of that time. Sober in detailing, limited in daylight and with no connection between the living space and the garden.

The current residents, a newly composed family with large age differences, needed more space. Mainly the parents felt the need for their own living space again. A space rich in daylight with a connection to the garden. An extension with a focus on lifelong living.
