The project consists of an integral redevelopment of the plot of a former office villa on the Koningin Astridlaan in Turnhout. The intensive remodeling of the villa makes it possible to realize 4 apartments within the volume. In the garden there is space for the realization of 4 family houses and a kindergarten. This combination of housing and social services contributes to the liveliness of the neighborhood. The outside space will be redefined and will become part of the public space of the Astridlaan.

Rutger Boydens
Rutger graduated from the Luca School of Arts in Brussels in 2013. After his studies, he moved to Antwerp to do internships at various architectural offices including ABN architecten and Markant Architecten. Since 2015, he has been working for WoonWerk Architecten. Not only the architecture attracts him, but also the international and family office atmosphere. After several years of working on various projects from A to Z, the strong interest in execution and detailing emerges more strongly. In consultation with Rik and Johan, it is decided to deploy him for all projects in the construction phase. On a daily basis, he tries to manage the execution of the various projects. Furthermore, he supports the preparation of tender dossiers through the knowledge gained on site.
