V-HOUSE |
|
V-House is a mixed project which takes its establishment in the
popular district of the Place du Jeu de Balle in Brussels. It develops
the concept of " cross-over ", or how to make communicate
semi-public and private functionalities. The stress is laid well
more on the passage of a function to another that on the function
itself. Thus a double steel structure will share in a pyramidal
hierarchy the light and the visual communications. The semi-public
function will extend while being reduced towards the increasingly
private functions, making it possible those to preserve a direct
link with a place of fastener and meeting. In the same way it is
in close connection with the street, interpreting the nodes of junction
between the public, semi-public and private parts, the three principal
components of the project.
