Forest House

Limburg, the Netherlands, 2024

This house for a young family is set in the forested landscapes of Limburg. Inspired by the time-tested building tradition of local farms, the house is constructed with materials found in its immediate surroundings. Stones gathered from the fields, and oak wood from the forests. The refined blend of simple forms, raw materials, and robust detailing embeds the house within its context, and ensures the structures will age beautifully through time. The interiors complement the robust exterior by introducing softer materials, resulting in a quiet yet cosy family home.
