The Albert project in Tervuren, Belgium, by Mamout Architectes involves the transformation of an existing building into a home. The interior space is designed as a spacious living area in constant connection with the surrounding forest.
Nestled within the forest, the barn has been transformed into a home with great respect for its original structure, which is preserved and thoughtfully revealed.
The interior unfolds into a long, open living space along the façade, inviting natural light and framing views of the surrounding woods.
More intimate sleeping areas are tucked into the lower section, ensuring privacy and warmth.
A refined yet sensitive reinterpretation that honors the essence of the existing architecture.
