If there would be a place where the open/close, private/public, owner/guest, definite/indefinite, fine/rough-cease to be such, what would it look like?
A 'fermette' (a country home build à l'ancienne) underwent a drastic renovation. A 12 mm steel wall is installed around the house. It stands 3 meters away from the building and is 3 meters high, with only few, specific openings that interrupt it: a narrow entrance-slit, three openings that frame close and far views and so a buffer zone is created around the house, filtering the surrounding landscape.

The fabulous brutalist structure of this youth education centre is characterized by the interplay of monolithic concrete ensembles and a sloping site. our interventions on the domain extend this tradition, investigating the dialogue between concrete and landscape. The hangar is composed of a retaining wall of concrete Lego blocks. See more |

| HOUSE S |

This house is designed for a family with three children. The trees and bushes on the plot strongly influenced the design. The building, a stretched box of 72m long, was implanted in a north-south direction, to organise the terrain in a westerly entrance zone and an easterly private garden with pool. See more |

| HOUSE 43 |
photos Dujardin Filip |
The architects of this home created a workshop, annex home for a graphic artist. All the details in the architecture as well in the interior elements added by the owner are a continuation of the graphic language spoken in this home. The central piece is undoubtably the glasshouse roof over the central garden. Sometimes it is a room, sometimes a garden depending on the mood of the day. See more |

| BLOB |
photos Vercruysse Frederik |
dmvA designed a mobile living and working unit. It has all the practical comforts of a caravan, the difference is that it looks like a sculpture.
Closed the blob is like a huge pebble, or even an egg. With its nose opened it has more of a funny looking space-ship. See more |

| HOUSE SIEBEN |
photos Dujardin Filip |
This house is designed with a strong inside-outside relation. The architecture embraces the outside space and subtle passages are created. The living room was raised 80 cm above level to create a direct relation with the outside views. The level differences in the house provide a subtle game around the central staircase with relatively small level differences. See more |

A house that refuses to be a barrier between public and private and is rather lifted in an attempt to provide a shelter for public use. The same footprint is private and public at the same time. See more |
