BUILDING TYPE:
Freestanding houses

This house was Van der Vlugt's last villa design. A noteworthy feature is the semi-circular end containing a workroom on the ground floor and a bedroom upstairs. The ground floor living spaces give onto a raised terrace. From the roof terrace, a recurring element in Van der Vlugt's villas ((https://www.architectureguide.nl/project/item/prj_id/202" class="inline_link">Private House Boevé, https://www.architectureguide.nl/project/item/prj_id/201" class="inline_link">Private House Sonneveld, https://www.architectureguide.nl/project/item/prj_id/266" class="inline_link">Private House Van der Leeuw), there is a panoramic view across the lake (Kralingse Plas). The villa has since been altered.
