“-Re” House no. 28 – At an Angle

Posted July 8, 2018October 1, 2018 CorinaLeave a commentPosted in -Re House

I’ve been having this project on a back burner for a quite a while. I saw it and could not resist. The angled wall in the living room kept asking for a brother. It took a while but I figured out what I would do with it. Original layout: •  Completed: 2014 Surface: 73m² Original Layout […]

“-Re” House together with “-Re” Adapt are two series part of a project in which I review, refine and redesign residential projects available on the Dutch housing market. “-Re” House touches projects that have been completed after the year 2000 and could have been done more efficiently to begin with, while “-Re” Adapt looks at how to […]

“-Re” House no. 26 – Why? Oh, why?

Posted February 4, 2018February 2, 2018 CorinaLeave a commentPosted in -Re House

At first glance I was more than convinced that this apartment was perfect for the new series “-Re” Adapt. It gave me the feeling on an old house, and I could have actually bet it was an old Amsterdam house split in apartments to rent. To my complete surprise I discovered this is part of […]

“-Re” House no. 25 – Even Small Spaces Need Love

Posted December 31, 2017December 30, 2017 CorinaLeave a commentPosted in -Re House

For a while I lived in a 25m² studio. Two people. Nowhere to hide. Sometimes you literally just want to kill each other. Obviously we didn’t! :D So, a 37m² is totally doable as a two persons apartment. Original layout: •  Completed: 2011 Surface: 37m² • For the love of all, unless it is a fancy […]

-“Re” House – The Experiment

Posted December 17, 2017December 16, 2017 CorinaLeave a commentPosted in -Re House

This apartment is an experiment. A test if you will. The purpose is to streamline the circulation of the spaces as we use them. Bedroom to toilet/bathroom, kitchen to closet, living room to kitchen, kitchen to bedroom. How many of us actually use the rooms in our house one by one and then be done […]

“-Re” House no. 22 – Once Again, It’s the Little Things…

Posted October 15, 2017October 15, 2017 Corina2 CommentsPosted in -Re House

Sometimes, there is no other way. Sometimes, the layout just plays with your nerves. So then, it gets down to the fine details to help with the proper functioning of a residence. Original layout: •  Completed: 2004 Surface: 110m² Loggia: 5m² External storage: 6m² • I have to admit that the load-bearring wall that cuts this […]

“-Re” House no. 20 – Showcase the Interesting

Posted September 24, 2017 CorinaLeave a commentPosted in -Re House

This is an apartment that was sent to me. It is not the craziest I have seen. It actually is a reasonable one. However, there are a few things worth mentioning. Note: The floor plans provided by the estate agent aren’t fully correct. Which is rather unfortunate and quite common. I’m often forced to fully […]
