Zigzag House by Jasper Smiths Architecture

Discover the unique Zigzag House in Utrecht, Netherlands, designed by Jasper Smiths Architecture in 2020. This modern minimalist house is a self-built narrow townhouse situated in a new residential area built on the site of the former Veemarkt.

What makes this property stand out is its innovative urban development and floor plan. With only a front garden, the 5.4m wide Zigzag House allows for a more agreeable floor plan. The concrete split-level house is divided into 8 floors, separated by a void and connected by a carefully designed wooden staircase. The void allows light from the skylights and landings to flood in throughout the whole building.
