Peristilio House / B2A

Peristilio is a 60m2 home extension that includes the enlargement of the living room, enhancing the connection between interior living spaces and the home’s garden. Designed in response to the client’s wish for a compact, but spacious home extension the sensitively responded to the site conditions. Located in the Dutch province of Utrecht, Netherlands, B2A drew inspiration from further afield, with a perimeter colonnade structure. This recollects a Roman peristilio blurring the line between the garden, terrace, and interior, while still presenting a modern structure that reconciles with the local built environment.
