Villa BW / Mecanoo

Where the rolling dune landscape flows into the lower-lying polder terrain of the hinterland, the naturally sloping landscape embraces Villa BW, with a building volume characterized by a double-curved roof coupled with an unmistakable expression of the facade. The twisting roof is created as a result of two overlapping shapes. A gable roof is designed on the dune side, also characteristic of the street scene on the Oorsprongweg. In contrast, a horizontal roofline is designed for the polder side.
