Beaufort; a sculptural tower of stacked forest villas, located in Kerckebosch Zeist and rooted in its green setting.

The concept and material elaboration of the tower are based on the themes of ‘sand’, ‘tree trunk’ and ‘leaf’. Stacking these themes as layers on top of one another generated the design. The theme of ‘sand’ encompasses the balcony parapets and terraces. Outdoor ceilings are designed as part of the ‘leaf’ theme, taking the form of an informal green finish on all the lower sides of balconies and cantilevered surfaces. Finally, the supporting columns and wooden façade cladding are elaborated as part of the ‘tree trunk’ theme.

As of last week all 19 spacious apartments are up for sale. For more information go to beaufortzeist.nl, and check out the project page >
