Located in the Flemish district of Belgium, Wim Goes Architectuur has delivered an awesome wooden extension to a house facade that encompasses both visual and structural grace. The natural, graying wood, the green vegetation and the blue sky and pond create a harmonious balance, accented by the slim vertical lines of the largest surfaces.
The facade is created from slim strips of wood selected for the straightness of the growth rings in each piece of wood. And although the wood will still warp slightly in the rain and sun, this does not pose a structural problem because the facade does not need to bear wind load — the wind will blow right through the strips.
