Exclusive forest retreat Garderen

This contemporary villa is a refined architectural statement where modern design and natural materials come together. Strong lines, generous roof overhangs and an understated palette define its character. The extensive use of natural stone allows the home to blend seamlessly into its green surroundings, creating an architecture that feels both powerful and naturally connected to its landscape.

Living in Connection with the Landscape

Large glazed surfaces form the heart of the design, drawing the outdoor environment deep into the interior. Wood and natural stone complement the transparency of the façade, adding warmth, texture and depth. These natural materials enhance the sensory experience of the home and reinforce the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Every architectural decision was made with the surrounding landscape as a guiding principle.

Nature’s
finest

Bukarest BK12R: Raw, Textured and Authentic

The façade is largely constructed using LAPIDE’s Bukarest BK12R natural stone bricks. This distinctive selection features a dynamic mix of brown, grey and blue tones, combined with a robust, coarse texture. Applied in varying formats and laid in a random bond pattern, the stone creates a layered, almost stacked appearance. Partially recessed joints further emphasize the raw character, resulting in a façade that feels natural, expressive and timeless.
