Meelfabriek Loft

Build started May 2024, delivery autumn 2024

Creating intimate places and keeping the openness of the Loft 

Using the classic three way separation of columns, capital and basement to a new order of a concrete brutalist capital, concrete decagon column and a white basement 

Surrounding terraces as green intermediate filter of light and air from the city

Continues flow of space throughout the loft

Outdoors as an extension of the interior

Multifunctional use of several rooms

Sitting room like a stage, higher to overlook the city of Leiden

Intimate Places

The main living in this former factory building flows around the brutalist concrete columns, some more intimate space was created by semi enclosing and subtile lifting of the floor

All bookshelf’s, cabinets, semi open room dividers are custom made  

An enclosed sitting place, lower study lounge place share an open cabinet with integrated TV, stereo, etc

Inbetween Spaces

Two rooms are disconnected from the free flowing Loft space

Here the subtile barrier of a hidden door or underpass needs te be taken to enter

Both rooms have slender detailed book- and light shelf above the beds

Aswell as integrated wardrobe closets and a small study

  

Entry And Bathing

Using only Plywood and white PU and compound materials all bathrooms fit in the overall scheme of the design

Multifunctional

Part of the free flowing Loft Space is this office

But don’t get fooled the closets contain a double folding bed so this room can easily be transformed in a guestroom or a third bedroom
