Partners Partner overview

In combination with minimalist and slim detailing, a refined synergy and correlation are created between material and technique.

The staircase has been given a central prominent place. Surrounded by facility areas such as technology, toilet, and kitchen, the core creates a clear separation between the living and dining room. In addition, the porch is an extension of the dining room, which provides a summer and winter living space.

Material and technique

Converse designed this house in a combination of a rural and modern style. More rougher and robust materials such as reed, a course brick, massive oak constructions, and Swedish rabbet have been used in combination with minimalist and slim detailing. This creates a refined synergy and correlation between material and technique. This results in a very contemporary and comfortable home that comes into its full potential in Kreek, Wilgenrijk.
