On the river in Rotterdam, is a wooden church from 1930.
The building has not functioned as a church since the 1960s, and had been used as a storage space and garage. The church was completely covered with aluminum sheeting and transformed into a storage company.
Until a family with two children, bought the church in order to live.
Instead of simply transforming the church into a house with 12 bedrooms, we have a ‘normal’ house created as a separate object placed in the church. You can truly walk around the house while you are ‘in’ the church.
WOW. As a family man, I can tell you that there is nothing as precious as a large, EMPTY space in your house. That space surrounding the interior “house” is a dream come true. It’s practically a small skating rink!
That is a great idea.
I wonder if the acoustics are too bouncy in the space? Even if that turns out to be the case it can easily and inexpensively be fixed. That house would be fantastic for a musician.
