el KANTOOR is currently working on the renovation of the house of a Rotterdam family. The work scope involves the house renovation and its execution. Located in Blijdorp, a residential neighbourhood of the city, the house dates from the 1930’s and its design approach involves the interaction of the house with the garden, brighten up the space and improve the insulation of the house.
The main modifications el KANTOOR aims is to open up the the layout making it a continuos space where the family and its visitors can interact while having a drink or dinner and/or simply being in the garden. While the ground floor will mainly function as a social space with an open kitchen connected to the garden and the dining-living room, the semi-sunken basement will host the bedrooms.
el KANTOOR addresses its experience to achieve a satisfying result by fitting all the family’s spatial necessities, selecting the appropriate materials for their profile and achieving a high quality construction execution.
This project aims to start construction by spring 2022.
