The regular readers of my blog know that I am a big fan of this type of house; an affordable home with the silhouette of an agricultural barn.

The idea of the two architects is to counteract the catalog houses and the monotony of new neighborhoods that increasingly spoil our countryside.

In the Dutch cultural landscape, especially in the Dutch polder a barn is recognizable by its shape, volume and material.

I agree … and they are also so very beautiful and simple…

The design is by the architects of dp6.  This link shows more pictures and information about Villa Schipper de Leeuw. Does somebody know why the house in the picture is called Villa and not barn house?
