House in a church
There is a wooden church built in 1930 located along the river De Rotte in Rotterdam, Netherlands. It has been several years that the church has not served to the congregation. Nowadays it houses a car garage, that is why it has been covered by a number of metal plates, looking now more like a hangar as a church. Architecture office Ruud Visser in cooperation with Peter Boer have designed a reconstruction of the church to a house for a family with two children. The new house has been constructed in the church as a separate building. In this design, the everyday profane and spiritual life are confronted. The space between the new house construction and existing church is open, so it is possible to walk around the house within the church and admire the architecture of the house and interior of the church at the same time. The rear glassed facade provides a fabulous view on the De Rotte river. The old “transept” of the church is open and separates the outside and private space.
