Belgian practice Hans Verstuyft Architects designs spaces with tangible sense of soul. Their latest project Renovation House V — refurbishment of a home in Antwerp, Belgium is not an exception.

The team of Hans Verstuyft Architects has restricted the plan and finished the space with the use of raw materials. The large scale of concrete was mixed with the warmth of natural wood, what created welcoming atmosphere. An array of planks was used for the ceiling within the kitchen. A custom-built wooden bench highlights the width of the space and creates a pleasant accent.
