villa, haarlemThe project entailed a complete make-over of a villa in Haarlem. The original narrow space was widened by partly breaking away the supporting wall between the old kitchen and the living room. The kitchen was transformed into a multi-functional wall unit, also incorporating the stairs. The owners nevertheless desired a division between the kitchen and the living room. This was created with a ‘floating’ cabinet which, on one side acts as a bookcase and on the other side provides storage for crockery. The toilet was moved to the hall, and from here a large, round window looks out into the living room. A new facing with big windows was added on the garden side to let in plenty of daylight. |

[tekst_nl] => Deze benedenwoning in een pakhuis tussen de Bloemgracht en de Bloemstraat was onpraktisch ingedeeld en erg donker. De bewoonster wilde bovendien een extra slaapkamer. De ramen zitten op 3 meter hoogte, dus er moest een list worden verzonnen voor het creëren van extra ruimte met behoud van daglicht. Door de vloer dertig centimeter uit te graven werd voldoende hoogte verkregen voor een ‘zwevende’ slaapkamer van glas, die het daglicht doorlaat naar de woonkamer. Onder dit sculpturale blok ontstaat een behaaglijke ruimte voor de open keuken. VASD ontwierp vrijwel alle meubels op maat. Hoogwaardige materialen als Muranoglas, Belgisch hardsteen, Amerikaans esdoornhout zijn gecombineerd met ongeschilderd stucwerk.
[tekst_en] => This ground-floor warehouse home between Bloemgracht and Bloemstraat was dark, with an impractical layout. The owner also wanted an extra bedroom. With the windows being located at a height of three metres, a smart solution was required to create extra space while also retaining the existing daylight. By sinking the floor by 30 centimetres, enough height was created for a ‘floating’ glass bedroom, allowing daylight to filter through to the living room. Beneath this suspended cube, enough room remained for a spacious open kitchen. VASD custom-designed most of the furniture for this project. High-quality materials such as Murano glass, Belgian bluestone, and American maple offset the bare plaster.
