Engelman Architects

A dream home looks different to everyone. What is certain is that we want to feel happy at home. A safe haven to recover from a busy day, to be together with the family, to pursue hobbies or to work with concentration.

If you choose to build your home yourself, you can be sure that all your living wishes will be realised. Engelman Architecten has been designing and supervising dream homes for 35 years. From a renovation of an existing home to a completely new house on an empty plot.

Many of our houses have been awarded the ‘Premium’ label, because people enjoy living in them so much and the houses have lost nothing of their relevance over the years. Engelman Architecten has always been somewhat averse to overly fashionable designs and living trends. We seek it more in elegance, beauty and sustainability. Homes that keep up with the times and retain their value. For the resident and the future resident. After all, nothing is as changeable as the use of a space. Precisely by also being involved in the execution, we have optimal influence on the aesthetics of the house.

Homes with a timeless appearance for long-term and flexible use are sustainable. These can be the new monuments for the future. We have an eye for the latest state of technology. As early as 1999, we built our first villa with a heat pump. Our conception of beauty includes natural materials, suitable for reuse. From the start of the design, we orient your home around the sun to benefit from light and warmth.

Building yourself is an intensive and exciting process. The choice of an architect is very important. An architect is your confidant throughout the entire process. Naturally, the architect provides a design in which all your wishes are reflected. But our work consists of much more. We advise you in the preliminary phase, arrange the permits, assess quotes from contractors and supervise the construction. In this way, we save you many worries, time and money.

That already starts with the place where you are going to live. We are happy to help you find the perfect plot. Aspects such as the location, surroundings, access, amenities and zoning plans are decisive for the future value of your home.
