"Residence AV is a courtyard house located in a dense residential neighborhood in Bruges, Belgium. Designed by YAMA architects, the project responds to a paradoxical brief: a strong desire for connection to the surrounding context combined with an equally strong need for privacy. The client, living alone, was attracted to the social presence and perceived safety of the neighborhood, yet sought a dwelling that could withdraw from direct views and support a more introspective way of living."

Residence AV is a courtyard house situated in a dense residential neighborhood in Bruges, Belgium. YAMA architects designed the house to reconcile a paradoxical brief: a desire for connection to the surrounding context alongside a strong need for privacy. The client lives alone and values the neighborhood's social presence and perceived safety. The dwelling withdraws from direct views to protect privacy while allowing controlled connection to the street and neighbors. Spatial organization and the courtyard typology enable both engagement with the context and quiet, introspective living within the same residence.
