The Villa Vught by Mecanoo located in the Dutch countryside near Vught gives a contemporary twist to the local farmstead typology. Traditionally, the Dutch ‘hoeve’ is an ensemble of farmhouses and living quarters loosely clustered around a courtyard.
A courtyard is an open space surrounded by walls, within a building. The interior versions of these nature spaces are becoming more and more popular in contemporary home design. Enjoy this showcase :)
