A terraced house in Wondelgem gets a new rear extension. The square ground plan is rotated according to the kink in the plot. A wedge-shaped opening is created between the extension and the main building, bringing daylight deep into the existing house.
The new roof is designed as a wooden shell structure of four mutually supporting planes. Centrally in the space, the roof is truncated, creating a generous skylight. Together with the wooden ring beam, the roof shells form a form-fitting structure, supported by the two side walls and a fine steel column.
