Daylit Ghent house extension by Atelier Vens Vanbelle looks like a geometric forest

The couple living in the house wanted a new kitchen, a new bathrooms and a more spacious, daylit home. In order to provide more natural lighting, the architects designed the extension with three rectangular skylights and a glass wall. The kitchen floor is covered in hexagonal tiles that reflect the geometric timber patterns formed on the ceiling and the hexagonal brown paving stone embedded in the lawn. The atrium, which cuts through the ceiling of the lounge, frames views of the ground floor. Related:...
