Fig Tree House
Bloot Architecture
In The Hague’s Vogelwijk district in The
Netherlands, a minimalist house extension
contrasts sharply with the expressive brick
architecture of a 1927’s house, exposing the
hidden qualities.
The house has an original annex at the front
side with behind it a beautiful fig tree in
the garden that was not visible from inside
the old house. Because the new extension
extends beyond the existing width of the
house, the glass extension is going into a
relationship with the existing annex. This
creates a semi-enclosed outdoor space
around the old fig tree.
