"Max Hart Nibbrig + 24 More SpecsLess Specs Mitchell van Eijk Text description provided by the architects. Bosrijk is a residential area west of the city of Eindhoven, located on a former military defense site. Housing in Bosrijk is designed as 'sculptures in a garden'. For a small plot next to an existing natural rainwater infiltration facility, the office designed a sculpture with five single-family homes, in which the idea of 'living in a forest landscape' was the leitmotif."
Bosrijk sits west of Eindhoven on a former military defense site and hosts housing conceived as sculptures within a garden. On a compact plot beside an existing natural rainwater infiltration facility, the design arranges five single-family homes as one sculptural ensemble. The composition foregrounds the idea of living in a forest landscape, prioritizing landscape continuity and visual integration with surrounding greenery. The scheme responds to site hydrology by respecting the infiltration facility and positions dwellings to engage views and embrace garden spaces. Material and massing choices emphasize a sculptural presence while maintaining a strong relationship with the landscape.
