On a wide constructing site in the woods of Soest (The Netherlands) a new villa has been built. An important theme while designing the house is the spatial connection between the three floors. From basement to the second floor a void has been planned. Standing at the front entrance a view over the void, directly into the garden, is provided.

Functions as the toilet, wardrobe and closets are connected to this void. The parapet around the void continues smoothly into these functional spaces and make sure a sculptural link between the three floors is created.
