Weekend RETREAT! Amazing use of wood architecture. Sexy lake diggs! Vertical facades are opaque to outside, yet allow view of lake and garden from within. I can picture myself lazing about on the dock and even really enjoying some time with the family while gathered about that awesome fire pit.
Multi-planar use of small plank wood beams at floor and ceiling makes it look like a builder's nightmare (but we could handle it). Anyone here speak Flemish? I sure don't but I would like to visit this place if they're willing to accept a sawdust producing, mono-linguistic American.
