Villa Breda – In other spheres
The longevity of a building depends not only on the selection of materials, but also on style. That's why the real art is avoiding fickle trends whenever possible, and building in a well-grounded and discreet way.

Intelligence and sustainability in construction
The discreet, yet powerful architecture and interior designs by Baudoin van Alphen Bergers Architects make it possible to keep this exact balance. In the design of the single-family home in Breda (NL), the focus was thus on producing intelligent and sustainable architecture: as circumstances change, it should be possible to modify the indoor and outdoor spaces of the building throughout its life cycle. This led to the use of low-maintenance materials with little environmental impact.
Bright spaciousness
Raising the building 80 cm gave it a spherical touch and the appearance of floating. The loft has a very open design, with its seemingly endless window facade and a view of the boundless green. This is where the large Farina planks of Silverline Edition were put to good use. With a length of 2.80 m and a width of 26 cm, Silverline Edition is the largest format with a calm grading in Bauwerk’s collection. A high-precision bevel was added on all four sides of the Silverline planks to further underscore the effect of their length.
