Bras House

This building is called Bras House for its location in Braschaat, located near Antwerp. It is known as “a rock among the trees“, since its architect wrapped the house with stone slabs and, as you can see in the photo, it is in the middle of a forest.

The house has a pool inside and its glass walls offer its tenants fantastic panoramic views without obstacles.

The Bras House is not only a beautiful architectural masterpiece, but it also offers a unique living experience. The interior of the house is spacious and modern, with high ceilings and plenty of natural light pouring in through the large windows. The glass walls not only provide breathtaking views of the surrounding forest but also create a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

Cubic house

This house was designed by the architect Tom Mahieu. He used simplistic design techniques and contemporary forms, such as fine and elegant lines, close connection and white surfaces.

Its interior is elegant, bright and minimalist. Its modern wood and marble furniture, white and pastel tones and contemporary art pieces are the elements that make this cube house a clear example of contemporary design.

In addition, architect Tom Mahieu took the location and orientation of the house very much into account in his design process. He did this to take advantage of natural light and create a harmonious connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Large windows and glazed doors allow for stunning views of the surrounding landscape and bring a sense of nature to the home. Overall, this house shows the perfect balance between simplicity, elegance and functionality in contemporary architecture.

Abeel House

This family home located in Ghent, is characterized by its windows, as they offer a wide range of views over the street and the city from the living room itself.

Mias and Vandenborre were the architects who designed and created this house. It consists of four floors: a garage and three habitable floors.

One of the most striking features of the interior is the combination of dark and light wood carpentry cabinets, which add a touch of sophistication and elegance to the living space.
