This is a renovation of a typical Zoute villa with white brick and thatched roof. Though the house had a great charm it was also very dark with very small spaces. Therefore a glass extension with minimal windows was added and spaces were connected in a continuous and more open layout.

For a family in Keerbergen, Mieke Van Herck designed a home that unfolds like a warm cocoon to its inhabitants. With the man of the house staying abroad most of the time, family connection was the key word for the design and construction of this house.

One summer evening, the idea took shape when it turned out that both client and architect were big fans of the residence featured in the movie “A single Man”, a house built in California by Lautner. That shared love brought about instant chemistry. The architect based his design on the principle of the viewfinder of a camera, a reference to the pro...

The name of this villa is taken from the studio where it was designed, "Axono". In most parts of the project, we tried to use natural materials such as stone, cement, wood, etc. It was also decided to use nature with elements such as trees, shrubs, etc. so that nature is next to the house. The use of stone and green doubles the sense of fusion of b...
