The 480m2 private home has a distinct night-daytime 
separation. It is located in the west of Rotterdam area on a corner plot
 of the site of an old hospital. On entering through a curved indent in 
an otherwise flat and mysterious façade with Celosia brickwork detail, 
visitors are led into the entrance hall. Stepping into the property, it 
suddenly opens into the well-lit living spaces of its curved and fluid 
interior. This continuous wall also serves as an entrance to the garage 
and staircase. The living room and library take up the rest of the 
space, wrapped around a curvaceous and carved out courtyard that frames 
the focal point of the house, the tree. The living room’s backbone is a 
long fitted closet of wood hiding all domestic functions including the 
basement, entrance, guest toilet, kitchen cabinets and pantry. The 
flooring from inside continues outside and essentially turns the 
courtyard into an extension of the house i.e. as an exterior room. There
 is a small basement for extra storage, and in addition, a sun trap 
patio at the bottom of the garden which provides an extra paved barbeque
 space for Dutch summer days.<br><br>
