Escampstaete
Architecture | Apartments | Den Haag
Living with a sustainable appeal
On the edge of Houtwijk, along the bustling Escamplaan, stands the Escampstaete. A beautiful blend of wood, light facade panels, and spacious balconies.
The layered apartment building is one half of a twin block.
The complex is oriented towards the sun, and each of the 12 apartments has its own small garden at the rear.
Many options
The 6-story building is structurally designed in horizontal manner.
Floors are chosen as discs on columns, detached from the facade, and a stabilizing core with stabilizing discs.
This allowed for a flexible facade layout and open floor plans.
As a result, there were 99 options for the 12 apartments, all meeting the specified requirements.
