Maxim Winkelaar | Design Follows Personality

Maxim Winkelaar Architects | Design Follows Personality.

Personal architectureA well-known expression in architecture is ‘Form Follows Function’, which means that the design of a building follows from the intended function or the eventual use. We believe in ‘Design Follows Personality‘, whereby, with our expertise, we create a personally tailor-made design together with the client and thus give the project its own unique character. The identity of the client is woven into the design; as a result, the living environment of our clients is naturally optimized and people feel at home more quickly in the buildings designed by us. Each project has its own story and the diversity of the designs created by ‘Design follows Personality’ can be seen in our portfolio.

Optimal experienceThe world is becoming increasingly busy and the sense of space around us is therefore becoming increasingly important. The experience of space is therefore an important aspect in our designs. Verandas, patios, voids, skylights, views through and sightlines are recurring elements in our designs. By applying different materials and colour accents that are combined with sleek design lines, beautiful contrasts and depth effects are created. We create designs for buildings that function well at every level, both practically and aesthetically and with an optimal experience. We guide the design process in phases, paying full attention to the wishes of the client. In combination with the reliability, knowledge and quality of the firm, this is the basis for successfully realizing projects.
