PRIVATE HOUSE AND PRACTICE BERG AAN DE MAAS
R. VAN WYLICK (DIRRIX & VAN WYLICK), 1987-1989, Holsberg 79, Berg aan de Maas
ARCHITECT(URAL OFFICE):
Dirrix & Van Wylick
PROJECT ARCHITECT:
Rein van Wylick
BUILDING TYPE:
Freestanding houses
Showing due respect to the landscape, this villa nestles against the high bank of the river Maas. A free-standing volume containing doctor’s and dentist’s practices connects to the house along a narrow passage. The spectacular location is exploited to the full with a panoramic view from the living room of a bend in the river. The various living levels are interlinked by a series of stairs that line up along the introverted north facade. When descending the stairs, the river once again looms into view through a single narrow vertical window.
