Detached House in Rhode-Saint-Genèse/Belgium
The property, part of a conventionally subdivided area, features a 6-metre difference in elevation between the level garden and the equally level front garden in the central, built-up area. The higher garden opens to the south towards the open landscape. The front garden is bordered by the access road. The building, with its large, south-north sloping shed roof, consistently follows the gradient. Between the continuous longitudinal walls—two exterior walls and two stairwell walls along the central axis—the three stories are staggered at half-storey intervals, each at ground level with the slope.
