Arcs everywhere! The soft curves of this house in the city of Utrecht result in a one-of-a-kind space. When the outdoor space is finished next spring, the extension will literally curve around the garden - creating a special relationship between the house and its surroundings.
The careful detailing of the Arc Deco House can be seen as a modern interpretation of the art deco style. Insulated curved glass set within warm mahogany frames carry the weight of the roof that is finished with a metal cladding.
A lovely and dynamic home for many years to come! Check out our website for more information and photos.
HOP transformed this historic building (a national monument a.k.a. 'Rijksmonument') in downtown Amsterdam into a true sanctuary. The project embraces natural materials and warm colors, seamlessly connecting the old and the new. The front house consists of a basement and a ground floor where the family can cook, dine and relax. The back house consists of four floors with bedrooms, workspaces and bathrooms. Here are some photos of the front house and the hall and foyer. Visit our website for more information and photos!
This newly built freestanding house is a seamless blend of modern architecture and nature. Designed to embrace the outdoors, its expansive glass walls offer uninterrupted views of the surrounding greenery, creating an open, airy atmosphere. The villa features wide terraces and open-plan living spaces that flow effortlessly into a spacious garden, making outdoor living a central part of daily life.
The South African family who resides here enjoys the home's balance between sleek, contemporary design and a deep connection to nature, reflecting their appreciation for both modern comforts and the beauty of the outdoors.
Recently we visited one of our new built houses in Oosterwold: The Little Big Bungalow. After more than a year the wooden slats on the facade have become silk grey, thereby blending together with the light grey color of the window frames. This year, the owners have invested much time and energy to create a rich variety of plants within the immediate surroundings of the house. Now more than ever this house is very much connected to the outdoor environment. For more photos check out our website!
In a secluded bay near the Gaasperplas, this fully bio-based and circular pavilion of the Amsterdam Angling Association will be built. Arriving by foot or boat; the angular shape of the building, with its large, steep roof, will catch your eye. On closer inspection, you will notice that the entire building is made of wood: modified pinewood planks resembling shingles cover the roof. The shutters, the window frames and the modular construction are also made of pinewood and together will create a lovely natural habitat for angling enthousiasts and visitors. The large windows and doors on the ground floor emphasize the feeling of being in the middle of nature. If you look up, you can see the top of the building through the large void from which plants will hang into the restaurant below.
After a positive concept permit application we have now handed in the full permit and can't wait to continue working on this unique project.

We've nearly completed a complete renovation and extension of a house in the Rivierenbuurt in Amsterdam. Wooden slats in varying widths and depths form a playful facade for both the extension and the garden shed
We are on the cover of the newest edition of @eigenhuiseninterieur ! Inside you can find a 14 page long article with many photos and an extensive interview on Bo, one of our partners, and Jorinde, with whom he lives in this apartment.
This playful renovation project, featuring a 4-meter high extension, is finished, and the garden has now come to life as well. The aim of the design was to create a unique home with a relaxed atmosphere, full of color. The ground floor has been extended, the floor has been lowered to increase height, and the layout of the house has been completely reconfigured. The kitchen plays a central role in the extension. The large kitchen island is oriented towards the dining table and the garden behind, allowing the residents to spend hours and hours cooking 🧑🍳
Befores & afters! (starting with the afters) Take a look at how this rundown 70s villa was completely transformed. Only the foundations, one exterior wall and the roof construction remained intact during the building process. Even though we built something almost completely new, we still wanted to maintain the principles with which the original building was designed: with solid exterior walls on either side, set back windows and a roof detail which goes all around the exterior of the building. FYI: the front garden will not remain a large grass field, it's still work in progress 🌱
