The project is based on the classical prototype of a pitched roof Dutch house, but gives it an edge through unorthodox use of traditional materials – the old Dutch ceramic tiles. In the past, the beautiful colourful tiles were used for decorative purposes to adorn the details of façades and interior elements. In this project SVESMI used this material in a bolder manner, making it a stylistic and formative element for the whole architectural body of the house, the street or even, if this feels appropriate, of the city block.
