Client says: “Engelman Architects made three sketch designs. The most daring design immediately appealed to us. Due to the sunlight at the front, the living functions are grouped around a patio. With long sightlines from the inside to the outside and with many beautiful details.

To dare

Building yourself gives so much freedom. You have the opportunity to create a home that suits your current and future housing needs and your family situation. A tailored suit instead of ready-to-wear. Freedom also means daring to choose and not being afraid of the risks. Only then will you get a home that is truly unique.

Quality

Designing and building a new-build home is a complex process. A passionate architect is able to translate this complexity into a well thought-out design. In addition, he makes specifications, assists in choosing a contractor and applying for the environmental permit and supervises the construction process. Intensive construction supervision is absolutely necessary to achieve the quality of the design.

Our housing wishes

 Engelman Architects was perfectly capable of translating our ideas about space into a design that fits within the environment, with the materials we like. Especially by listening carefully to us and by having an eye for detail. The architect immersed himself in our current living setting and our housing wishes, looked at the possibilities of the building plot and brought this together in the design.

Choices

When building your house yourself, you have a lot of choices to make. Materials, lighting and so on. This process took place in a very informal atmosphere at Engelman Architecten. Because the architect was able to explain the advantages and disadvantages of each option, we were able to make informed decisions.

To enjoy

We have been living in this house with great pleasure for several years now. I find the light in all rooms and therefore the experience from the inside out the most special. It is enjoyment every day from day one. ”
