Villa for Visually Impaired

Huizen | The Netherlands

Completed: 2004

Client: visio / stichting novum

Project summary:

The villas are situated on visio's own site, in a green environment in 'het gooi'. The task was to create three houses for 24-27 (semi) self-supporting visually impaired inhabitants with 8-9 persons per house. Taken in consideration was the possibility to later sell the houses as private villas in this beautiful environment. The houses are divided into two elements, coupled by a glass corridor. The space between the two elements is a sheltered patio as a quiet outdoor space.
