Polyphemos House / Martens Willems & Humblé Architecten

A private house at the Klevarie site in Maastricht. Within the historic city walls, this was before an old monastery garden, later a hospital, and a nursing home. But always served as hidden green space for the site. In our urban plan for the site, we cherished this green space. The gate on the street functions as a 'pars pro toto' for this project. The charming modernist nursing home of the architect Schellinckx from 1962 still stands at the site. A unique modernist incident within the cityscape for Maastricht standards.
