House Lampens – Vanhove initiates Lampens’ interpretation of the rule of the walls as an element of delimitation. Walls are hybrid element composed of structural I-beams (2,6m high) and separative wall portions of a height of 2.07m, wich both follow rigorously a grid. A strip of glass along the top closes the house from the outside.

House concealed within nature. The opennes of the plan is balanced by a sorrounding wall that overlaps below the roof to create a patio for the bedrooms. The patio functions as an inversion of the cavity in the entrance door area.
