Residential Complex in Nieuw-Crooswijk, the Netherlands

The residential complex seeks to invigorate the residential area in (Nieuw) Crooswijk. Rather questioning how the inhabitants are going to live in their houses, the question lies how to design intercommunication between
neighbours. The in between space is created to be ambiguous and neither explicit private or public making appropriation exciting.

Walking in the gallery where more space is give so people can use if more informally, note that the high ceiling give the space a more monumental and light atmosphere.

The most intimate setting at the top level.

At the top dwellings, a comfortable diffused daylight is used for the introverted nature of the space.

The housing typologies in this residential complexes are divided into 3 types, from the bottom to the top level, different social interactions are encouraged depending on the social initiative of the inhabitants.
