Private house on the Veluwe
VERBINDENDE FACTOR
PURA® NFC ALS VERBINDENDE FACTOR TUSSEN TWEE BOUWVOLUMES
Voor een particuliere opdrachtgever in een landelijk gelegen dorpje op de Veluwe, ontwierp architect Hendrik Jan van der Valk (Van der Valk Woudstra) in nauwe samenwerking met Guus Vedder (2•1 Architecten) een moderne villa, bestaande uit twee hoofdvolumes. Eén volume wordt gebruikt als woon-/ eetkamer en keuken, in het andere zijn de slaapkamers, badkamers, speelkamer en technische ruimte gehuisvest.
Voor het ontwerp van de villa op een groot kavel in een bosrijke omgeving, sprak de opdrachtgever een aantal nadrukkelijke wensen uit. Naast diverse esthetische aspecten moest de villa een duurzaam en energieneutraal karakter krijgen. De gevels, daken en vloeren werden daarom zeer goed geïsoleerd en luchtdicht gebouwd. Alle kozijnen zijn van optimaal geïsoleerde aluminium profielen en voorzien van drievoudige beglazing. De gehele woning is voorzien van domotica en alle installaties worden door de geïnstalleerde zonnepanelen gevoed. Een gasaansluiting kon dan ook achterwege gelaten worden.
The facades of the two main volumes are constructed of anthracite brickwork and are connected with one another by an open, light and airy corridor. This also connects the shed, toilet and entrance hall and conservatory. Immediately striking about the villa’s unique design are the Pura® NFC sidings in oak colour used on the facade. Trespa was chosen for both aesthetic and functional reasons. Van der Valk: “I’ve been working with Trespa products since 1988. Back then I specified Trespa® Meteon® for a modern residential and commercial building on Monnickendam harbour as it enables such a high level of detail. The sidings were also important for this villa in the Veluwe. In early discussions the client stated that he wanted to put the minimum amount of energy into future maintenance and also wanted his villa to have a natural image, so Pura® NFC exterior sidings was the obvious choice for me. Certainly in the natural-looking oak colour.”
The design tells a special architectural story, one in which the choice of material, light and balance plays an important role.”

Based on various reference projects carried out by Trespa and specially manufactured largeformat material samples, the client became just as enthusiastic as the architect. With the high level of detail and the use of mainly large surfaces, the result on paper was a modern contemporary design. “A design that was also brought to life in practice by the contractor with very attractive strong facade patterns. These are accurate to just a few millimetres – something that the contractor had never seen before,” according to the proud enthusiastic architect.”
The combination of anthracite brickwork with oak-coloured facade parts has given the comfortable villa the modern contemporary image that the client and architect were looking for. The sustainable maintenance-friendly character of the facade panels used provides substantial added value here. “The design tells a special architectural story, one in which the choice of material, light and balance plays an important role. Thanks to Guus Vedder’s project management and the craftmanship of the contractor, we have achieved a very attractive result in 14 months.”
