The outdoor house,designed.
Pools, natural pools, wellness and outdoor living. Designed and built by one team, from the first sketch to the years that follow.
What we do
A garden is a room without a ceiling. We design and build it the way an architect draws a house: water, stone, light and planting as one plan, carried by one team.
Since 2009 we have guided homeowners and architects from first idea to handover. You get one point of contact, one schedule and one person responsible for the result.
After handover, we stay. Start-up, winterising, maintenance and repairs are done by our own service team.
Four living spaces
How do you want to live outside?
Most projects combine two or three. Start with what you want to feel, not with a product.

The brief. We want to swim without chlorine, and the trees have to stay.
The answer. The swimming zone follows the long axis of the farmhouse; the regeneration zone follows the row of trees. A buried biofilter keeps the water clear. The bluestone terrace meets the kitchen door.

Material, nature & experience
Water makes light visible. Stone makes time visible. Planting makes the seasons visible.
- Stone
- Belgian bluestone, limestone and ceramic, chosen for texture, grip and how they age.
- Water
- Mirror-still, moving or calm. The waterline decides how light reflects.
- Timber
- Thermowood, oak and cedar for decks, saunas and shade.
- Planting
- Grasses, marginal plants and multi-stem trees that give privacy and settle the water.
Client stories
In their words.
We did not want a pool that swallowed the garden. Now we look across the water to the trees from the kitchen.
The project lead called every Friday, even with nothing to report. We never had that trust with any other contractor.
