The luxury patio home in Amsterdam, Netherlands blends perfectly into its surroundings and exudes modernity and sophistication. The villa, equipped with large windows, wraps itself around the landscape, so that contact with nature is guaranteed in very room.
In the centre, a serene patio has been designed, which takes the indoor-outdoor feeling to an even higher level and also ensures that the light penetrates deep into the house. The frequent use of Thermory wood, both inside and outside, gives the house a warm, soft appearance and at the same time creates a beautiful connection with the garden.
Thanks to the use of refined materials, the villa has a luxurious and high-quality character. The house is equipped with a pure and subtle pallet of materials. The brickwork accentuates the horizontal lines of the house and is interrupted by large windows. The luxurious ash wood ceilings and thermo-ash facade cladding were designed in close collaboration with Carpentier, Thermory distributor in Netherlands.
The patio house was runner-up in Thermory Design Awards 2022 Interior category.
